These files contain 10 minute data that has been quality controlled using
our interactive IDL programs. The files are labelled with a three letter
code to indicate the station, the year, the month, and the frequency of the
data (IIIYYYYMMq10.txt for 10 minute data).

There is a two line header that gives the year, month, 3 letter ID, Argos ID,
and station name in the first line and latitude, longitude, and elevation in
the second line.

The columns are as follows:

1     Year
2     Julian day
3     Month
4     Day
5     Ten minute observation time
6     Temperature (C)
7     Pressure (hPa)
8     Wind Speed (m/s)
9     Wind Direction
10    Relative Humidity (%)
11    Delta-T (C)

Dome Fuji (fujYYYYMMq10.txt) files are an exception to the above, where 
    column 10 is lower temperature (C), not relative humidity.
