Ron Brown Near-Surface Mean Meteorology and Fluxes (5-min) - Leg 2
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/72.033

Summary
This dataset contains data collected aboard the ship Ron Brown for EPIC. The
data are made up of computations of bulk meteorological variables and fluxes
derived from the ETL system based on preliminary analysis done during Leg 2 of
the EPIC2001 cruise. Most quantities given are subject to future modification
based on accounting for other sources of data and revised calibrations. No
direct turbulent flux calculations are included in this present data.
