Radiosonde Cross Section Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/82.056

Summary
This data set contains Cross_Section imagery from the NAME Field Catalog. The
following imagery products are included: across_southern_gulf_of_CA,
across_northern_gulf_of_CA, along_100_W, along_105_W, along_110_W, along_20_N,
along_25_N, along_30_N, along_gulf_of_CA. NOTE: This data set was developed
based on real-time preliminary data. These soundings contained a significant
dry bias (see Ciesielski et al 2009 in JTECH).
