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: Sea surface salinity, sea surface temperature, pCO2 and chlorophyll collected from VO65/Turn the Tide on Plastic in the Mediterranean Sea - Western Basin, the Northeast Atlantic Ocean (limit-40 W), and others from 2017-10-22 to 2018-01-19 (NCEI Accession 0170967)
Abstract: This Oceanographic data was collected in situ from the Leg 0,1,2,3 of the Volvo Ocean Race 2017/18 on board "Turn the Tide on Plastics". The data was calibrated daily with a zero calibration for CO2 and in every port with a standard gas. The data was calculated as one minute averages with a variation in difference below 0.1. The used instrument is an OceanPack RACE manufactured by SubCtech in Kiel.

We are planning continious upload of more data until June/July 2018. Final calculations for pCO2 from exact algorithms to these values are still under investigations.
