% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 4730 % Primary Name: LOCHINGTON % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Australia % Latitude: -23.93757 +/- 0.00507 % Longitude: 147.52082 +/- 0.00432 % Elevation (m): 267.67 +/- 0.72 % # of Months: 37 % % IDs: gsod - 943990-99999 % usaf - 943990 % wmo - 94399 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % World Meteorological Organization Metadata % % Site Hash: f9d978f112ec00deab0a19763eefc49c % Raw Data Hash: b2506d5eb45730dd23152bd5e2ee1561 % Adj Data Hash: d5fafba6db3aa3a783fc117805d54711 % % 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 2009 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27.316 1.316 2009 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 28.458 1.425 2010 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.829 -0.159 2010 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.284 -0.248 2010 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.011 -0.090 2010 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.573 1.518 2010 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.890 -0.098 2010 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.777 0.791 2010 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.449 2.254 2010 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.680 0.567 2010 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.135 1.552 2010 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.518 -0.778 2010 11 22.875 -2.147 1 0 NaN NaN 23.475 -2.526 2010 12 24.616 -1.438 0 0 24.616 -1.438 25.704 -1.329 2011 1 26.559 0.550 0 0 26.559 0.550 26.682 -0.306 2011 2 26.272 0.718 0 0 26.272 0.718 26.838 0.306 2011 3 23.565 -0.558 0 0 23.565 -0.558 24.872 -0.229 2011 4 19.965 -1.112 0 0 19.965 -1.112 21.269 -0.786 2011 5 14.903 -2.106 0 0 14.903 -2.106 15.993 -1.995 2011 6 13.120 -0.887 0 0 13.120 -0.887 14.352 -0.635 2011 7 12.435 -0.781 0 0 12.435 -0.781 13.836 -0.359 2011 8 16.020 0.885 0 0 16.020 0.885 16.838 0.725 2011 9 18.261 -0.342 0 0 18.261 -0.342 19.203 -0.379 2011 10 22.665 0.347 0 0 22.665 0.347 23.731 0.435 2011 11 26.285 1.263 0 0 26.285 1.263 27.164 1.163 2011 12 24.916 -1.139 0 0 24.916 -1.139 25.930 -1.103 2012 1 26.353 0.343 0 0 26.353 0.343 26.884 -0.104 2012 2 25.607 0.053 1 0 NaN NaN 26.375 -0.157 2012 3 23.403 -0.719 0 0 23.403 -0.719 24.616 -0.485 2012 4 20.722 -0.354 0 0 20.722 -0.354 22.005 -0.050 2012 5 15.747 -1.262 0 0 15.747 -1.262 17.428 -0.560 2012 6 13.343 -0.665 0 0 13.343 -0.665 14.770 -0.216 2012 7 12.812 -0.405 0 0 12.812 -0.405 14.295 0.100 2012 8 15.029 -0.106 0 0 15.029 -0.106 16.072 -0.041 2012 9 18.913 0.309 0 0 18.913 0.309 20.196 0.614 2012 10 21.358 -0.959 0 0 21.358 -0.959 22.556 -0.741 2012 11 25.343 0.320 0 0 25.343 0.320 26.337 0.336 2012 12 26.964 0.910 0 0 26.964 0.910 27.852 0.819 2013 1 28.941 2.931 0 0 28.941 2.931 28.807 1.819 2013 2 25.458 -0.095 0 0 25.458 -0.095 26.098 -0.434 2013 3 24.263 0.141 0 0 24.263 0.141 25.164 0.063 2013 4 20.972 -0.104 0 0 20.972 -0.104 22.388 0.333 2013 5 17.371 0.361 0 0 17.371 0.361 18.581 0.593 2013 6 14.517 0.509 0 0 14.517 0.509 15.798 0.812 2013 7 16.421 3.205 0 0 16.421 3.205 17.172 2.977 2013 8 17.238 2.104 0 0 17.238 2.104 17.827 1.714 2013 9 22.920 4.317 0 0 22.920 4.317 23.189 3.607 2013 10 25.059 2.742 0 0 25.059 2.742 25.554 2.258 2013 11 24.462 -0.560 1 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN
