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: Dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations using CTD, Niskin bottle, and other instruments from R/V Delware II in the Northeast coast of the United States from 2014-05-10 to 2014-05-17 (NODC Accession 0131424)
Abstract: This archival package contains carbon and nutrient related data that were collected from CTD profile measurements in the Northeast coast of the United States. Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbon chemistry resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed ocean acidification. Studies have demonstrated adverse effects on calcifying organisms, particularly some invertebrates, corals, sea urchins, pteropods, and coccolithophores. This effort is in support of the coastal monitoring and research objectives of the NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP).
