SOAS Quality Controlled ISS Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/373.013

Summary
This data set contains sounding data collected from June 1 to July 15, 2013 as
part of the Southern Oxidant and Aerosol Study (SOAS). A total of 105 quality
controlled soundings are contained in the final SOAS dataset from the NCAR/EOL
Integrated Sounding System, which is a suite of instruments that includes a
GPS Advanced Upper-air Sounding System (GAUS). It was located in Alabama’s
Talladega Forest.
