Micro Limb Sounder (MLS) on Aura
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/93.172

Summary
A link to the NASA Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) data website. The MLS
experiments measure naturally-occurring microwave thermal emission from the
limb (edge) of Earth's atmosphere to remotely sense vertical profiles of
atmospheric gases, temperature, pressure, and cloud ice.
