NCAR Integrated Sounding System (ISS) Rawinsonde
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/82.037

Summary
The Integrated Sounding System (ISS) radiosonde dataset contains 458 soundings
launched from three sites in Mexico; Port Penasco (ISS2), Kino Bay (ISS3), and
Los Mochis (ISS4), between July 3 and August 15, 2004. NOTE: These data have
been corrected as of 10 March 2010 for a significant dry bias. See the
documentation file for details on the correction(s) applied to this data set.
