UAH MAPNet MIPS Surface Meteorological Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/626.028

Summary
Data from the University of Alabama-Huntsville (UAH) Mobile Atmospheric
Profiling Network (MAPNet) Mobile Integrated Profiling System (MIPS) 6-m
retractable surface met tower that was deployed at locations around the
southeastern United States for five PERiLS 2023 deployments. The PERiLS
deployments were on 16-17 February, 3, 24-25, and 31 March and 1 and 5 April
2023. Measurements include air temperature, pressure, relative humidity,
winds, and precipitation.

For IOP4 (31 March and 1 April 2023) the MIPS was located near the UAH BERM
surface meteorological station so those data are included here as the MIPS met
station was not deployed.
