Galapagos Rawinsondes (hi-res)
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/72.027

Summary
This Dataset consists of rawinsonde data collected from Galapagos during EPIC.
Each datafile contains the sonde's UTC release time, and a vertical profile of
pressure, temperature, humidity, latitude and longitude, total wind speed and
direction, and U and V wind components, every 10 seconds during the sonde's
ascent.
