R/V Le Suroit 915MHz Wind Profiler Data [NCAR/EOL]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/287.002

Summary
This dataset contains 915 MHz wind profiler data collected by the NCAR/EOL
Integrated Sounding System (ISS) aboard the French ship R/V Le Suroit during
the Fronts and Atlantic Storm Track Experiment that took place in 1997. This
dataset includes 30 minute consensus winds data with two range-gate extents
(wHHMMa.JD files are 98 meter range-gate, while wHHMMb.JD files are 56 meter
range-gateHH is hour, MM is minute, JD is Julian day). These data are in ASCII
format and have not been quality controlled.
