R/V Ron Brown Rawinsonde (hi-res) - Leg 1 https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/72.025 Summary This Dataset consists of rawinsonde data collected during the EPIC cruise of the NOAA Ship Ron Brown. Each datafile contains the ships location, the sonde's UTC release time, and a vertical profile of pressure, temperature, humidity, latitude and longitude, total wind speed and direction, and U and V wind components, every two seconds during the sonde's ascent.
