DOE ARM SGP Surface Meteorological Observation System (SMOS) Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/71.005

Summary
This data set contains 1 minute resolution surface meteorological data from
the Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM)
Southern Great Plains (SGP) Surface Meteorological Observation System (SMOS).
These SMOS stations are located at many of the ARM SGP Extended Facilities in
southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma. This data set covers the period from 1
July 2001 through present. These data are in monthly zip files that have an
average size of 18 Mb. UCAR/JOSS has not done any additional processing or
quality control on these data.
