% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 43101 % Primary Name: SITKINAK(USCG) % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: AK % Latitude: 56.55000 +/- 0.00050 % Longitude: -154.13300 +/- 0.00050 % Elevation (m): 17.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 41 % % IDs: gsod - 703570-99999 % usaf - 703570 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % % Site Hash: 8ce92a58352601394797e5df4b82db9a % Raw Data Hash: d46d2372f14793c24181f2e71d8e6a4d % Adj Data Hash: 5a9db9175fec6e62992d8f2a13c07fb9 % % The data for this station is presented below in several columns and in % several forms. The temperature values are reported as "raw", % "adjusted", and "regional expectation". % % The "raw" values reflect the observations as originally ingested by % the Berkeley Earth system from one or more originating archive(s). % These "raw" values may reflect the merger of more than one temperature % time series if multiple archives reported values for this location. % Alongside the raw data we have also provided a flag indicating which % values failed initial quality control checks. A further column % dates at which the raw data may be subject to continuity "breaks" % due to documented station moves (denoted "1"), prolonged measurement % gaps (denoted "2"), documented time of observation changes (denoted "3") % and other empirically determined inhomogeneities (denoted "4"). % % In many cases, raw temperature data contains a number of artifacts, % caused by issues such as typographical errors, instrumentation changes, % station moves, and urban or agricultural development near the station. % The Berkeley Earth analysis process attempts to identify and estimate % the impact of various kinds of data quality problems by comparing each % time series to neighboring series. At the end of the analysis process, % the "adjusted" data is created as an estimate of what the weather at % this location might have looked like after removing apparent biases. % This "adjusted" data will generally to be free from quality control % issues and be regionally homogeneous. Some users may find this % "adjusted" data that attempts to remove apparent biases more % suitable for their needs, while other users may prefer to work % with raw values. % % Lastly, we have provided a "regional expectation" time series, based % on the Berkeley Earth expected temperatures in the neighborhood of the % station. This incorporates information from as many weather stations as % are available for the local region surrounding this location. Note % that the regional expectation may be a systematically a bit warmer or % colder than the weather stations by a few degrees due to differences % in mean elevation and other local characteristics. % % For each temperature time series, we have also included an "anomaly" % time series that removes both the seasonality and the long-term mean. % These anomalies may provide an easier way of seeing changes through % time. % % Reported temperatures are in Celsius and reflect monthly averages. As % these files are intended to be summaries for convenience, additional % information, including more detailed flagging and metadata, may be % available in our whole data set files. % % The Berkeley Earth analysis was run on 15-Nov-2013 19:55:48 % % Raw Data QC Continuity Adjusted Data Regional Expectation % Year, Month, Temperature, Anomaly, Failed, Breaks, Temperature, Anomaly, Temperature, Anomaly 1974 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -1.786 0.046 1974 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.594 0.655 1974 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.632 1.015 1974 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.294 0.277 1974 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.018 0.106 1974 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.297 1.575 1974 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.307 1.779 1974 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.663 0.094 1974 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.553 -0.235 1974 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.713 -1.239 1975 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.468 -2.537 1975 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.707 -3.545 1975 3 -9.010 -7.671 1 0 NaN NaN -3.758 -1.926 1975 4 1.164 -0.268 1 0 NaN NaN -0.407 -1.346 1975 5 4.537 -0.574 1 0 NaN NaN 3.499 -1.119 1975 6 7.834 -0.674 1 0 NaN NaN 6.950 -1.066 1975 7 11.096 -0.309 1 0 NaN NaN 11.031 0.119 1975 8 11.383 -0.831 0 0 11.383 -0.831 11.805 0.083 1975 9 9.691 -0.329 0 0 9.691 -0.329 9.877 0.348 1975 10 5.278 0.216 0 0 5.278 0.216 4.312 -0.257 1975 11 -1.280 -3.561 0 0 -1.280 -3.561 -1.901 -3.690 1975 12 -2.056 -1.074 0 0 -2.056 -1.074 -3.472 -1.998 1976 1 -0.165 1.274 0 0 -0.165 1.274 -1.739 0.193 1976 2 -1.707 -0.037 0 0 -1.707 -0.037 -3.781 -1.619 1976 3 -2.383 -1.044 0 0 -2.383 -1.044 -4.205 -2.373 1976 4 1.115 -0.317 0 0 1.115 -0.317 0.059 -0.880 1976 5 4.778 -0.332 1 0 NaN NaN 3.962 -0.656 1976 6 8.595 0.086 0 0 8.595 0.086 8.086 0.070 1976 7 11.143 -0.262 0 0 11.143 -0.262 11.285 0.373 1976 8 11.667 -0.547 0 0 11.667 -0.547 12.209 0.488 1976 9 9.178 -0.843 0 0 9.178 -0.843 9.241 -0.288 1976 10 4.554 -0.508 0 0 4.554 -0.508 3.883 -0.685 1976 11 2.306 0.025 1 0 NaN NaN 3.289 1.500 1976 12 2.813 3.794 1 0 NaN NaN 0.333 1.808 1977 1 3.461 4.900 1 0 NaN NaN 4.686 6.617 1977 2 0.964 2.634 1 0 NaN NaN 3.072 5.234 1977 3 0.433 1.773 0 0 0.433 1.773 -1.331 0.502 1977 4 1.059 -0.373 1 0 NaN NaN -0.386 -1.326 1977 5 5.103 -0.007 0 0 5.103 -0.007 4.349 -0.269 1977 6 9.408 0.899 0 0 9.408 0.899 8.957 0.940 1977 7 11.961 0.556 1 0 NaN NaN 11.468 0.556 1977 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.948 1.226 1977 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.422 0.894 1977 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.967 -0.602 1977 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.436 -2.225 1977 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.303 -1.829 1978 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.197 5.128 1978 2 3.932 5.601 1 0 NaN NaN 0.561 2.723 1978 3 1.243 2.582 0 0 1.243 2.582 0.005 1.837 1978 4 3.069 1.637 0 0 3.069 1.637 3.238 2.299 1978 5 5.520 0.409 0 0 5.520 0.409 5.853 1.235 1978 6 8.150 -0.359 0 0 8.150 -0.359 8.346 0.330 1978 7 9.880 -1.525 0 0 9.880 -1.525 10.664 -0.248 1978 8 12.488 0.274 0 0 12.488 0.274 13.237 1.515 1978 9 9.378 -0.643 1 0 NaN NaN 10.067 0.539 1978 10 5.806 0.744 1 0 NaN NaN 5.416 0.847 1978 11 3.454 1.173 1 0 NaN NaN 4.294 2.505 1978 12 2.805 3.787 1 0 NaN NaN 2.365 3.840 1979 1 4.183 5.622 1 0 NaN NaN 4.071 6.002 1979 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.903 -2.741 1979 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.726 3.558 1979 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.367 3.428 1979 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.453 1.835 1979 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.180 1.164 1979 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.692 1.780 1979 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.181 1.460 1979 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.167 1.638 1979 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.768 2.200 1979 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.745 2.956 1979 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.542 -3.068 1980 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.396 -1.464
