ORCAS Picarro Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/490.008

Summary
This dataset contains atmospheric measurements of carbon dioxide (CO2),
methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), and water vapor (H2O) mixing ratios made
with the NOAA Picarro Cavity Ring Down Spectrometer (Crosson 2008) instrument
onboard the NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER (Gulfstream-V High-performance Instrumented
Airborne Platform for Environmental Research) aircraft (Tail Number N677F)
during the ORCAS (O2/N2 Ratio and CO2 Airborne Southern Ocean Study) campaign
with research flights from Punta Arenas, Chile from 7 January to 1 March 2016.
