TOGA COARE soundings from Santa Cruz
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.110

Summary
This dataset consists of sounding data from Santa Cruz Island in the Solomon
Islands (WMO 91541) which was operated by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology
for the Solomon Islands Meteorological Service. Soundings were taken twice per
day (00 and 12 UTC) during the IOP. UCAR/JOSS conducted no quality control on
these data. This dataset includes pressure, temperature, dew point, relative
humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and altitude taken at 10 second vertical
intervals. Refer to the station README file for details. NOTE: This dataset
has been updated (5/2/2002) with corrected data for the humidity measurement
errors of the Vaisala RS 80 radiosonde (Wang et al 2002). Please see the
README for details.
