NCAR's Database of Upper Air Observations
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
This dataset represents a large collection of global upper air soundings starting in 1973 and is updated within about 1 month of real time.
Description
This archive contains all upper air soundings from DSS datasets ds353.4 and ds351.0, however, this dataset can be output in a simple ASCII format for the entire period of record with all variable units standardized. This data set is superseded by The NCAR Upper Air Database, 1920-continuing in ds370.1
