CAMP: Northern South China Sea - Southern Japan Surface Meteorology and
Radiation Data Set
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/76.156

Summary
This data set contains the Coordinated Energy and Water Cycle Observation
Project (CEOP) Enhanced Observing Period 3 and 4 (EOP-3 and EOP-4) CEOP
Asia-Australia Monsoon Project (CAMP) Northern South China Sea hourly Surface
Data Set. This Data Set covers 25 sites: Alishan, Anpu, Chengkung, Chiayi,
Chutzehu, Hengchun, Hsinchu, Hualien, Ilan, Jiyuehtan, Kaohsiung, Keelung,
Lanyu, Pengchiayu, Penghu, Suao, Taichung, Tainan, Taipei, Taitung, Tanshui,
Tawu, Tungchitao, Wuchi and Yushan. This dataset contains the entire EOP-3 and
EOP-4 time period (i.e., 1 October 2002 through 31 December 2004). This data
set contains both ASCII data and netCDF data. The ASCII data file covers the
entire time period for all stations. The netCDF data file covers the entire
time period with one netCDF file for each station.
