Eta MOLTS Derived Soundings
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/16.016

Summary
The GCIP/ESOP-96 Eta MOLTS Derived Soundings data set contains NCEP Eta Model
Location Time Series (MOLTS) derived soundings for locations within the ESOP96
domain. These output are only for the initial analysis time (i.e. no forecast
derived soundings) and only the state parameters (pressure, temperature, dew
point, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction). The complete output
(including hourly forecast derived soundings with all surface and upper level
parameters) in the original BUFR format are available from NCAR/SCD. This data
set consists of output from 01 April to 30 September 1996. See the README file
for more details.
