We had a request for this over on https://github.com/NCAR/geocat-comp/issues/631.

Function: stdatmus_z2tdp

Link in NCL for the NCAR's Data Support Section is dead

NOAA has a link to the U.S Standard Atmosphere, 1976 booklet which seems helpful

Here's the relevant Fortran code from NCL: https://github.com/NCAR/ncl/blob/develop/ni/src/lib/nfpfort/stndAtmUS76_dp.f

I think this is what came from NCAR's DSS (what's now RDA/DECS I believe).

Look to recreate with the Python package ambiance
