TOGA COARE soundings from Padang
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.132

Summary
This dataset consists of sounding data from Padang, Indonesia (WMO 96163)
which was operated bythe Indonesian Meteorological Service. Soundings were
taken twice daily (00 and 12 UTC) during the IOP. The data were processed
through the automated, visual, and spatial quality control processes. This
dataset includes pressure, temperature, dew point, relative humidity, wind
speed, wind direction, and altitude. Data were taken at 30/60 second vertical
intervals prior to late January 1993, after late January 1993 data were taken
at six second vertical intervals. Refer to the station README file for
details.
