RASS Point Loma, California Virtual Temperature Profile Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/68.012

Summary
The RASS Point Loma, California Virtual Temperature Profile Imagery(GIF) is
one of several upper air products collected as part of the Dynamics and
Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus PhaseII: Entrainment Studies (DYCOMS-II)
project field catalog operated by the National Center For Atmospheric
Research/Earth Observing Laboratory (NCAR/EOL:
http://catalog.eol.ucar.edu/dycoms). There is one image available per day
which includes each hourly virtual temperature profile for the day. The
products cover the period from 1-31 July 2001 (except for 19-24 July). The
products were acquired from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) Forecast Systems Laboratory (FSL)
