The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

Title: Chemical, navigational and other data collected aboard the R/V Melville during cruise MV1202 in the Indian Ocean and South Atlantic Ocean from 2012-01-22 to 2012-02-08 (NCEI Accession 0130703)
Abstract: This dataset includes chemical, navigational and other data collected aboard the R/V Melville during cruise MV1202 in the Indian Ocean and South Atlantic Ocean from 2012-01-22 to 2012-02-08. These data include CONDUCTIVITY, CURRENT SPEED - EAST/WEST COMPONENT (U), CURRENT SPEED - NORTH/SOUTH COMPONENT (V), DEPTH - BOTTOM, DEPTH - OBSERVATION, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, SALINITY, WATER TEMPERATURE, course over ground, speed over ground and surface irradiance. The instruments used to collect these data include ADCP, CTD, GPS, PAR Sensor, echo sounder and oxygen meter. These data were collected by Warren T. Wood of US Navy; Naval Research Laboratory - Stennis MS, and by University of California - San Diego; Scripps Institution of Oceanography as part of Seismic Oceanography of Agulhas Mixing. The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) submitted these data to NCEI as part of the Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program.

A suite of navigation products produced by the Rolling Deck to Repository program is included in this accession, which include one high resolution, one 1 minute resolution, and one low resolution coordinate file. R2R provides a processed version of the CTD data. The ADCP data represent the raw data set. Post processed quality assessed data are not available in this accession.
