R/V Sagar Kanya Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/22.040

Summary
This dataset consists of rawinsonde data collected during INDOEX from the
Oceanographic Research Vessel (ORV) Sagar Kanya. Each datafile contains the
ship's location, the sonde's UTC release time, and a vertical profile of
pressure, temperature, humidity, latitude and longitude, total wind speed and
direction, and U and V wind components, every 1 second during the sonde's
ascent.
