Carrizal Venezuela 25mb Vertical Resolution Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/554.001

Summary
This data set contains vertical profiles of pressure, temperature, mixing
ratio, wind speed, and wind direction from the Carrizal, Venezuela radiosonde
system during the VIMHEX-II field season. A total of 330 VIZ 1290 radiosondes
were released with one every day at 14 UTC with other special releases as
requested. These data have not had corrections applied for thermistor or
hygristor lag and are in a columnar ASCII format.
