% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 43419 % Primary Name: KNIK % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: AK % Latitude: 61.46670 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -149.71670 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 24.10 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 9 % % IDs: coop - 504943 % ghcnd - USC00504943 % ncdc - 20022075 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % US Cooperative Summary of the Month % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: 854d437151e29aba03c4d2e079664394 % Raw Data Hash: 62d0c484611ea6539f0f2c5c6e470918 % Adj Data Hash: c5575ab9192235e7257b9f895bb90901 % % 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 1950 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.720 -0.093 1950 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.968 1.778 1950 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.017 0.745 1950 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.375 -0.205 1950 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.540 -3.950 1950 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -16.024 -0.012 1951 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -19.684 -3.460 1951 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.781 -2.067 1951 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -14.999 -5.508 1951 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.052 2.568 1951 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.469 1.143 1951 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.210 -0.477 1951 7 13.850 -2.546 1 0 NaN NaN 13.221 1.408 1951 8 13.333 -1.440 0 0 13.333 -1.440 10.588 0.398 1951 9 9.167 -0.688 0 0 9.167 -0.688 6.178 0.907 1951 10 0.111 -1.303 0 0 0.111 -1.303 -4.029 -0.860 1951 11 -4.222 1.785 0 0 -4.222 1.785 -8.459 2.131 1951 12 -12.944 -1.516 0 0 -12.944 -1.516 -18.323 -2.311 1952 1 -14.667 -3.026 0 0 -14.667 -3.026 -20.909 -4.685 1952 2 -6.778 1.353 0 0 -6.778 1.353 -11.362 1.352 1952 3 -3.944 0.963 0 0 -3.944 0.963 -10.293 -0.803 1952 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.173 -0.656 1952 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.651 -2.675 1952 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.909 -0.778 1952 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.667 -0.146 1952 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.742 -0.448 1952 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.870 -0.401 1952 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.563 2.607 1952 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.168 6.423 1952 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -12.975 3.037 1953 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -19.189 -2.965 1953 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.570 2.144 1953 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -11.177 -1.686
