Tropical Pacific Wind Profiler Soundings, continuing from August 1985

This dataset contains vertical wind profiles for several tropical Pacific islands and TOGA-COARE ships. All data were provided by NOAA's Aeronomy Lab, which operates several of the wind profiling radars. Other contributors include the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, which owns the Darwin radar, and TOGA-COARE which provided data from ships and some land stations.

Data are available from as early as August 1985, and the Galapagos radar is still currently in operation. Please consult the inventory for full period-of-record information for each individual station.
