NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER Uplooking Rayleigh Lidar Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/379.034

Summary
This dataset contains PRELIMINARY NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER Uplooking Rayleigh Lidar
data collected during the Deep Propagating Gravity Wave Experiment over New
Zealand (DEEPWAVE) from 13 June 2014 to 20 July 2014. These data are in netCDF
format. These data contain time vs altitude arrays of temperature (and
temperature error) from 30-60km at 5 minute time cadence and 3km actual
vertical resolution (reported every 1 km). Included are the Data Quality
Report and an example IDL code for reading the netCDF files.
