Experiences with data quality control and homogenization of daily records of various meteorological elements in the Czech Republic in the period 1961?2010

Original language description

Quality control and homogenization has to be undertaken prior to any data analyses in order to eliminate any erroneous values and non-climatic biases in time series. In recent years, considerable attention was paid to daily data since it can serve, amongother conventional climatological analyses, as non-biased input into extreme value analysis, correction of RCM outputs, etc. In this work, we describe and then apply our own approach to data quality control of station measurements, combining several methods: (i) by analyzing difference series between candidate and neighboring stations, (ii) by applying limits derived from interquartile ranges, and (iii) by comparing the series values tested with ?expected values ? technical series created by means of statistical methods for spatial data (e.g., IDW, kriging). Because of the presence of noise in series, statistical homogeneity tests render results with some degree of uncertainty. In this work, the use of various statistical tests and ref
