% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 43304 % Primary Name: POINT NOWELL % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: AK % Latitude: 60.43330 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -147.93330 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 3.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 10 % % IDs: coop - 507447 % ghcnd - USC00507447 % ncdc - 20021978 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % US Cooperative Summary of the Month % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: b1946c93621ff26f67843bfd8a30dcc7 % Raw Data Hash: 494c717d1726ae518ec50f22424009e4 % Adj Data Hash: b4c54e4c0e030d3dfb8952fe7b30490b % % 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 1962 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.017 -0.666 1962 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.365 -0.423 1962 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.559 0.307 1962 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.233 0.569 1962 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.774 -1.124 1962 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.752 1.010 1962 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.445 0.801 1962 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -7.422 1.079 1963 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.850 2.568 1963 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.049 2.830 1963 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.464 -0.541 1963 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -1.115 -1.157 1963 5 7.833 -0.829 0 0 7.833 -0.829 5.326 0.643 1963 6 10.111 -2.656 0 0 10.111 -2.656 7.502 -1.285 1963 7 14.167 -1.065 0 0 14.167 -1.065 11.739 0.487 1963 8 13.722 -0.921 0 0 13.722 -0.921 11.312 0.649 1963 9 12.167 1.290 0 0 12.167 1.290 8.762 1.864 1963 10 5.536 0.813 1 0 NaN NaN 1.871 1.128 1963 11 -0.611 -0.345 0 0 -0.611 -0.345 -8.318 -4.072 1963 12 2.333 6.854 0 0 2.333 6.854 -3.019 5.482 1964 1 -0.548 4.890 1 0 NaN NaN -7.861 1.557 1964 2 -0.611 2.289 0 0 -0.611 2.289 -6.031 0.849 1964 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.484 -3.561 1964 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.752 -0.794 1964 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.671 -2.012 1964 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.322 0.535 1964 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.829 -0.422 1964 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.380 -0.283 1964 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.794 0.897 1964 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.391 0.648 1964 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.106 0.140 1964 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.370 -5.870 1965 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.526 -1.108 1965 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.898 -3.018
