MIPS Surface Meteorological Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/113.076

Summary
This data set contains surface meteorological data collected coincident with
the MIPS profiling system during the PLOWS field seasons. Two different
instrumentation setups were utilized as described in the readme file. The
temporal resolution is 1 second for IOP10, IOP14, IOP17 and IOP18 and 5 second
for IOP 1,2,4,5,7,8,9,12,13,19,21,23 and 24. The data were provided by the
University of Alabama-Huntsville. Both systems are in a comma-delimited ascii
format, but the parameters included differ.
