About
Annual mean temperature data covering four major Arctic cities—Reykjavik (Iceland), Anchorage (USA), Trondheim (Norway), and Norilsk (Russia)—is compiled in this file. The records capture temperature coordinates to facilitate the analysis of climate trends across similar northern latitudes. Extracted from a larger earth surface temperature collection, this subset focuses specifically on the Arctic region to assist in targeted climate research and visualisation without the overhead of processing global datasets.
Columns
- City: Name of the specific city recorded (Reykjavic, Anchorage, Trondheim, Norilsk).
- Country: The nation in which the city is located.
- Latitude: The geographic latitude coordinate in degrees.
- Longitude: The geographic longitude coordinate in degrees.
- Year: The Gregorian year of the recorded data, ranging from 1980 to 2013.
- Hemisphere: Indicates the hemisphere (North hemisphere only).
- AverageTemperature: The calculated annual average temperature for the specified location.
- East/West: Indicates whether the longitude is East or West.
