R/V Seward Johnson Rawinsonde Data [UNOLS]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/87.014

Summary
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Rain in Cumulus Over
the Ocean (RICO) project. This data set includes the high vertical resolution
(2 second) rawinsonde data from the Research Vessel (R/V) Seward Johnson. A
total of 88 soundings were released from 31 December 2004 to 24 January 2005.
Soundings were typically released four to six times per day.
