GCIP/ESOP-95 Surface: Hourly Precipitation Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/1.006

Summary
The Hourly Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e.,
Arkansas-Red Basin River Forecast Center, National Climatic Data Center Hourly
Precipitation data, Oklahoma Mesonet Precipitation data, and the precipitation
data extracted from the ESOP-95 Hourly Surface Composite). Data from these
sources were quality controlled and merged to form this precipitation
composite.
