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: DNA, ammonium, chlorophyll c, fluorescence and other profile, underway - surface and discrete sample data collected in the North Pacific Ocean on the RANGE RECOVERER, THOMAS G. THOMPSON and WECOMA cruises R0208, T0205 and others as part of the NEP project from 2000-05-30 to 2002-08-19 (NCEI Accession 0115199)
Abstract: This dataset includes profile, underway - surface, discrete sample, biological, physical and chemical data collected aboard the RANGE RECOVERER, THOMAS G. THOMPSON and WECOMA during cruises R0208, T0205, W0005A and W0008 in the North Pacific Ocean from 2000-05-30 to 2002-08-19. These data include Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), AMMONIUM, CHLOROPHYLL C, FLUORESCENCE, NITRATE, fucoxanthin, SALINITY, NITRITE, BACTERIA, CAROTENOIDS - PLANT, PHAEOPIGMENTS, Synechococcus, diatom, PHYTOPLANKTON, NITRATE + NITRITE CONTENT (CONCENTRATION), WATER TEMPERATURE, SILICATE, Diadinoxanthin, HPLC PIGMENTS, CHLOROPHYLL A, PHOSPHATE, Eukaryote, Violaxanthin, monadoxanthin, CHLOROPHYLL B and Alloxan (or alloxantin). The instruments used to collect these data include CTD, fluorometer, Optical Spectrometer, Fast Repetition Rate Fluorometer and Slowdrop optical profiler / CTD. These data were collected by Ricardo Letelier of Oregon State University as part of NEP. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-10-30.

The following is the text of the abstract provided by BCO-DMO:

Phytoplankton, HPLC, flow cytometry, and nutrient data were collected by SLOWDROP optical profilers, underway, and CTD's. SLOWDROP optical profilers provided high resolution vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and density along with bio-optical properties. The underway component focused on the assessment of the spatial and temporal variability in phytoplankton biomass and physiology. Discrete samples for chlorophyll fluorometric determinations, pigment analysis, particle absorption, and nutrients were collected by CTD cast.
