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: Discrete seawater samples collected at the surface, 1 m below the surface, and 1 m above the bottom two times a week at each mooring (Kelp and Outside) from June 12, 2018 to August 3, 2018 (NCEI Accession 0277934)
Abstract: This dataset contains chemical and physical data collected on Mooring - Hopkins Marine Stations during deployments KELP and OUTSIDE in the North Pacific Ocean from 2018-06-12 to 2018-08-03. These data include depth, dissolved inorganic Carbon, pH, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, and total alkalinity (TA). The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird SEACAT and Niskin bottle. These data were collected by Kerry J. Nickols of California State University Northridge, Yuichiro Takeshita of Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, David Mucciarone, Heidi Hirsh, Robert B. Dunbar, and Stephen G. Monismith of Stanford University, and Sarah Traiger of United States Geological Survey as part of the "Collaborative Research: RUI: Building a mechanistic understanding of water column chemistry alteration by kelp forests: emerging contributions of foundation species (Kelp forest biogeochemistry)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-10-16.

Supplementary information: Acquisition Description:
Discrete seawater samples were collected at the surface, 1 m below the surface, and 1 m above the bottom two times a week at each mooring (Kelp and Outside) from June 12, 2018 to August 3, 2018 between 10:30 and 14:00 local time. Water was collected using a 1.7 L Niskin bottle and subsampled into a 30 mL glass serum bottle (with rubber stopper and crimp cap) for DIC and a 120 mL glass bottle for TA. All samples were immediately preserved with 1 μL of saturated mercuric chloride solution for every 1 mL of sample (Dickson et al., 2007)
