GCIP/ESOP-98 Surface: Special Surface Observations Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/18.019

Summary
This dataset contains only the GCIP/ESOP-98 Automated Surface Observing System
(ASOS) and National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) DATSAV2 "Special" observation
surface data for the GCIP/ESOP-98 domain and time period. These are
observations that are reported at off-hour times. The ASOS and DATSAV2
"Nominal" hourly surface data for the GCIP/ESOP-98 domain and time period are
included in the GCIP/ESOP-98 Hourly Surface Composite.
