% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 44451 % Primary Name: NORTH POLE 2 % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Ocean Weather Stations % Latitude: 81.60000 +/- 0.05000 % Longitude: -162.80000 +/- 0.05000 % Elevation (m): 0.00 +/- 10.00 % # of Months: 12 % % IDs: hadcru - 990527 % wmssc - 990527 % % Sources: Hadley Centre Data Release % World Monthly Surface Station Climatology % % Site Hash: 0273b6e41eecb340ae605d0559b8c638 % Raw Data Hash: 1441ede383ec2f7c8db54c1c4e066319 % Adj Data Hash: 1441ede383ec2f7c8db54c1c4e066319 % % 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 1949 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -27.109 -3.765 1949 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -12.151 -1.745 1949 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.070 -1.273 1949 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -1.715 -0.964 1949 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.971 1.007 1949 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.785 0.316 1949 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.269 -0.245 1949 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -24.591 0.555 1949 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -26.493 3.991 1950 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -28.894 2.540 1950 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -34.072 -1.247 1950 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -29.648 1.483 1950 4 -22.500 0.951 0 0 -22.500 0.951 -23.586 -0.242 1950 5 -10.200 0.314 0 0 -10.200 0.314 -10.400 0.007 1950 6 -1.200 0.704 0 0 -1.200 0.704 -1.045 0.752 1950 7 -0.300 0.558 0 0 -0.300 0.558 -0.399 0.352 1950 8 -1.400 0.685 0 0 -1.400 0.685 -1.043 0.935 1950 9 -7.800 -0.592 0 0 -7.800 -0.592 -7.266 -0.166 1950 10 -16.400 0.732 0 0 -16.400 0.732 -17.601 -0.577 1950 11 -27.200 -1.947 0 0 -27.200 -1.947 -25.521 -0.375 1950 12 -34.200 -3.608 0 0 -34.200 -3.608 -33.333 -2.849 1951 1 -36.500 -4.960 0 0 -36.500 -4.960 -36.124 -4.691 1951 2 -34.400 -1.468 0 0 -34.400 -1.468 -34.605 -1.779 1951 3 -29.200 2.038 0 0 -29.200 2.038 -29.091 2.040 1951 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.701 1.643 1951 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.739 1.667 1951 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.250 2.047 1951 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.103 0.648 1951 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.550 1.428 1951 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.466 1.635 1951 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -16.329 0.695 1951 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.351 1.794 1951 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -31.404 -0.919 1952 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -30.227 1.207 1952 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -32.230 0.595 1952 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -31.683 -0.552
