National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) Moored Buoy and C-MAN Station Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/88.063

Summary
This data set contains hourly resolution surface meteorological and
oceanographic data and 10 minute resolution wind data from the NOAA National
Data Buoy Center moored buoy and Coastal Marine (C-MAN) networks along the
Gulf of Mexico and Southeastern Atlantic coast. There are 21 moored buoys and
17 C-MAN stations included in this data set. This data set covers the period
from 1 January to 31 December 2005. The data are in space delimited ASCII
format. These data have not had additional quality control performed by
NCAR/EOL.
