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: Temperature profile and pressure data from CTD casts from NOAA Ship MALCOLM BALDRIGE and other platforms from the TOGA area of Pacific Ocean from 1993-02-28 to 1997-06-27 (NCEI Accession 9700222)
Abstract: Temperature profile and pressure data were collected using CTD casts in the TOGA area of the Pacific Ocean from NOAA Ship MALCOLM BALDRIGE and other platforms from 28 February 1993 to 27 June 1997. Data were collected and submitted by Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory with support from the Equatorial Pacific Ocean Climate Studies (EPOCS), Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA), and Global Ocean Atmosphere Land System (GOALS) projects.

Supplementary information: Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM).

Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description.

To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
