GCIP/ESOP-95 Surface: Hourly Surface Meteorological Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/1.003

Summary
The GCIP/ESOP-95 Hourly Surface Composite contains data from several networks
(i.e., Artais Automated Weather Observation System, Handar AWOS, and
Qualimetrics AWOS, Oklahoma Mesonet, Department Of Energy Atmospheric
Radiation Measurement Surface, High Plains Climate Network, Automated Surface
Observing System, Wind Profiler Network, national Climatic Data Center Surface
Airways Observations, and Colorado Agricultural Meteorological data) for the
ESOP 95 domain. Data from these sources were merged and quality controlled to
form this Surface Composite.
