Carrizal Venezuela 10mb Vertical Resolution Radiosonde Thermodynamic Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/554.002

Summary
This data set contains 10mb resolution vertical profiles of pressure,
temperature, and mixing ratio from the Carrizal, Venezuela radiosonde system
during the VIMHEX-II field season. A total of 330 VIZ 1290 radiosondes were
released with one every day at 14 UTC with other special releases as
requested. These data cover from the surface to typically 700mb and have had
thermistor and hydristor lag corrections applied. The data are in a columnar
ASCII format.
