NCAR/EOL 1290MHz Wind Profiler NIMA Winds and RASS Data (West Profiler Site)
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/536.003

Summary
This dataset contains quality-controlled 1290 MHz wind profiler data collected
by the NCAR/EOL Integrated Sounding System (ISS) that was located west of the
double ridge at the West Wind Profiler Site during the Perdigao field project
in 2017. This dataset includes consensus winds data and Radio Acoustic
Sounding System (RASS) virtual temperatures in NetCDF format. These data have
been quality controlled by the NCAR Improved Moments Algorithm (NIMA).
