% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 530 % Primary Name: NORTH POLE 8 % Record Type: TAVG % Country: [Missing] % Latitude: 83.90000 +/- 0.05000 % Longitude: -161.90000 +/- 0.05000 % Elevation (m): 0.00 +/- 10.00 % # of Months: 20 % % IDs: wmssc - 990567 % % Sources: World Monthly Surface Station Climatology % % Site Hash: 974c4a12b4becb99b6b2ceae5e9e3844 % Raw Data Hash: 9cbc46e75e36616fac86502e4166cfea % Adj Data Hash: 9cbc46e75e36616fac86502e4166cfea % % 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 1958 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.928 -0.351 1958 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.701 2.046 1958 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.949 0.728 1958 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.335 3.823 1958 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.778 1.252 1958 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -19.602 -1.488 1958 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -26.141 -0.530 1958 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -27.082 3.631 1959 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -32.084 0.448 1959 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -32.296 0.752 1959 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -33.630 -2.320 1959 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -21.988 1.502 1959 5 -9.200 0.824 0 0 -9.200 0.824 -9.756 0.821 1959 6 -1.500 -0.709 0 0 -1.500 -0.709 -0.990 0.354 1959 7 -0.300 -1.074 0 0 -0.300 -1.074 -0.228 -0.449 1959 8 -1.200 -0.266 0 0 -1.200 -0.266 -0.509 0.978 1959 9 -8.000 -0.523 0 0 -8.000 -0.523 -8.290 -0.260 1959 10 -16.300 1.261 0 0 -16.300 1.261 -18.370 -0.256 1959 11 -24.500 0.558 0 0 -24.500 0.558 -23.628 1.984 1959 12 -29.900 0.259 0 0 -29.900 0.259 -30.757 -0.045 1960 1 -32.000 -0.022 0 0 -32.000 -0.022 -32.171 0.361 1960 2 -28.600 3.895 0 0 -28.600 3.895 -30.378 2.670 1960 3 -24.800 5.957 0 0 -24.800 5.957 -28.348 2.962 1960 4 -23.300 -0.363 0 0 -23.300 -0.363 -24.627 -1.137 1960 5 -10.000 0.024 0 0 -10.000 0.024 -9.563 1.014 1960 6 -2.100 -1.309 0 0 -2.100 -1.309 -1.110 0.235 1960 7 0.300 -0.474 0 0 0.300 -0.474 0.206 -0.015 1960 8 -1.800 -0.866 0 0 -1.800 -0.866 -0.994 0.493 1960 9 -7.700 -0.223 0 0 -7.700 -0.223 -8.172 -0.142 1960 10 -15.300 2.261 0 0 -15.300 2.261 -17.742 0.373 1960 11 -25.300 -0.242 0 0 -25.300 -0.242 -26.154 -0.542 1960 12 -27.000 3.159 0 0 -27.000 3.159 -27.981 2.732 1961 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -32.826 -0.294 1961 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -34.838 -1.789 1961 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -33.667 -2.357 1961 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.038 0.453 1961 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -10.529 0.048 1961 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -1.251 0.094 1961 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.829 -1.049 1961 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.013 -0.526 1961 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.248 -1.218 1961 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -17.064 1.050 1961 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -23.622 1.990 1961 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -31.155 -0.443
