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: | Water temperature, salinity, and sound speed data collected by CTD and XBT from the R/V Falkor in the NW Hawaiian Islands 2014-03 to 2014-06 (NCEI Accession 0137765) |
| Abstract: | Physical parameters (water temperature, salinity, and sound speed) were measured as high-resolution profiles at select locations and times using CTD and XBT instruments on the R/V Falkor geophysical mapping cruises FK140307 and FK140502 during 2014-03-07 to 2014-04-11 and 2014-05-02 to 2014-06-06, respectively. The CTD was a Sea-Bird Electronics 911plus/917plus to a maximum depth of 1000 m and the XBTs were Sippican, Inc. Deep Blue Expendable Profiling Systems to a maximum depth of 760 m. The CTD data are available in the Sea-Bird "cnv" text files and the XBT in NetCDF (COARDS/WOCE). |
