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: | Meteorological and hydrographic data collected from Middle Bay Lighthouse in Mobile Bay, AL from 2005-05-23 to 2013-12-31 (NODC Accession 0117376) |
| Abstract: | Dauphin Island Sea Lab and the Mobile Bay National Estuary Program have partnered with the University of South Alabama, the Alabama Department of Conservation, State Land Division, Coastal Program, the Environmental Protection Agency's Gulf of Mexico Program and the Alabama Lighthouse Association to provide real-time wave and current data from Middle Bay Lighthouse in Mobile Bay, AL. Near real-time data are available in a user-friendly format at www.mymobilebay.com. Informative pop-ups describe each parameter and graphs of each may be displayed for the visitor to the website. Researchers may download the data in a spreadsheet format for further analysis. |

Dates are Julian days and all times are Central Standard Time. Hydrographic data: Data are single observations taken at 30 minute intervals unless otherwise specified. Dates are Julian days and all times are Central Standard Time. Wave and Current Profile Data: An RDInstruments 1200kHz Workhorse Monitor outputs a current profile every 10 minutes and a waves measurement every 30 minutes. For currents, a profile is generated every 10min using 60 pings every 2sec. |
