Bureau of Meteorology Darwin Australia Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/384.014

Summary
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology routinely releases radiosondes from
Darwin (WMO 94120) which is on the north-central coast of Australia. During
the HAIC-HIWC field phase, soundings were routinely released four times daily
(00, 06, 12, and 18 UTC; wind only at 06 and 18 UTC). This data set includes
the quality controlled Darwin soundings released for the HAIC-HIWC field phase
(15 January to 15 March 2014). A total of 254 quality-controlled, high
resolution (2-second) soundings are contained in the final HAIC-HIWC data set.
