AVAPS Dropsonde Profiles
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/617.001

Summary
Dropsondes released from the University of Wyoming King Air research aircraft
stationed at Utqiagvik, Alaska during the Chemistry in the Arctic: Clouds,
Halogens, and Aerosols (CHACHA) field campaign aimed to improve the
understanding of atmospheric chemistry that impacts ozone, particulate matter,
and cloud chemical composition in the context of a rapidly changing Arctic.
