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: Currents, temperature, conductivity, and sigma-theta data collected from moored instruments deployed from the platform ARGO MAINE in the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary in support of Massachusetts Bay Internal Wave Experiment between August 4, 1998 and September 2, 1998 (NODC Accession 0061443)
Abstract: A 1-month 4-element moored array experiment to measure the currents associated with large-amplitude internal waves generated by tidal flow across Stellwagen Bank.
