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: |
Physical oceanographic data collected from moorings deployed in the Bering Strait from 2005-07-10 to 2006-07-16 (NCEI Accession 0013223) |
| Abstract: |
Moorings were deployed from summer 2005 to summer 2006. Each data file contains the data from one instrument-year. The listed year is the year in which the mooring was deployed. Moorings A2 and A3 were equipped with an upward-looking sonar (PI: Moritz, UW), but these data are not included in this archive. The Sea-Bird instrument at Mooring A2 (indicated as wOptical in the following list) was equipped with optical sensors for fluorescence, turbidity and PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) (PI: Whitledge, UAF). These data are included in this archive, although only minimal quality control of the data has been performed, as noted in the header files. This leaves to the user final judgments about which portions of the optical records are usable. Very basic tests suggest the PAR data is likely unusable. The A2 Mooring was also equipped with NAS-2E nitrate analyzer (PI: Whitledge, UAF), but these data are not included in this archive. |
