% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 7924 % Primary Name: ESQUIMALT METOC % Record Type: TAVG % Country: Canada % Latitude: 48.43300 +/- 0.00050 % Longitude: -123.43300 +/- 0.00050 % Elevation (m): 12.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 18 % % IDs: gsod - 712026-04211 % gsod - 712026-99999 % icao - CWPF % usaf - 712026 % wban - 4211 % % Sources: Global Summary of the Day % % Site Hash: f9175d8a6461ba1f91d8e0111356f426 % Raw Data Hash: 3e1b74c4936c9a1054e99e81387360a8 % Adj Data Hash: b4783d678524fabe65040bcf7c37322e % % 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 1993 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.045 -2.423 1993 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.523 0.446 1993 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.882 1.489 1993 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.770 0.430 1993 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.758 2.717 1993 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.688 -0.089 1993 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.774 -1.297 1993 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.314 0.515 1993 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.229 0.954 1993 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.559 1.833 1993 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.590 -1.642 1993 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.931 1.174 1994 1 6.703 5.270 1 0 NaN NaN 3.543 4.165 1994 2 4.706 0.574 0 0 4.706 0.574 1.576 -0.501 1994 3 7.550 2.102 0 0 7.550 2.102 5.154 1.761 1994 4 9.998 1.602 0 0 9.998 1.602 7.910 1.569 1994 5 12.414 0.318 0 0 12.414 0.318 11.516 1.475 1994 6 13.489 -1.344 0 0 13.489 -1.344 12.148 -0.629 1994 7 15.554 -1.573 0 0 15.554 -1.573 16.210 1.139 1994 8 16.002 -0.853 0 0 16.002 -0.853 15.845 1.045 1994 9 13.707 -0.623 0 0 13.707 -0.623 14.036 1.761 1994 10 9.846 0.064 0 0 9.846 0.064 7.944 0.218 1994 11 6.131 0.844 0 0 6.131 0.844 1.730 -1.502 1994 12 5.478 2.666 0 0 5.478 2.666 1.327 0.570 1995 1 6.389 4.956 0 0 6.389 4.956 1.148 1.770 1995 2 6.567 2.435 0 0 6.567 2.435 4.300 2.223 1995 3 7.258 1.810 0 0 7.258 1.810 4.247 0.855 1995 4 9.265 0.869 0 0 9.265 0.869 6.889 0.549 1995 5 12.810 0.714 0 0 12.810 0.714 12.301 2.260 1995 6 14.093 -0.740 1 0 NaN NaN 13.840 1.063 1995 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.996 0.925 1995 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 13.583 -1.216 1995 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.890 2.615 1995 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.678 -0.049 1995 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.015 1.783 1995 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.717 0.960 1996 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.978 -0.356 1996 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.124 1.048 1996 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.009 0.616 1996 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.099 0.758 1996 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.694 -1.348 1996 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.293 -0.484
