ChinaTemp {MAINT.Data}

China Temperatures Data Set

Description

This data set consist of the intervals of observed temperatures (Celsius scale) in each of the four quarters, Q_1 to Q_4, of the years 1974 to 1988 in 60 chinese meteorologic stations; one outlier observation (YinChuan_1982) has been discarded. The 60 stations belong to different regions in China, which therefore define a partition of the 899 stations-year combinations.
