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: Partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), temperature, salinity and other variables collected from surface underway observations using shower head equilibrator, carbon dioxide gas detector and other instruments from 4 trans-Pacific crossings onboard container ship Cap Blanche in the Pacific Ocean from 2016-10-19 to 2017-05-24 (NCEI Accession 0169600)
Abstract: This archival package contains underway measurements of pCO2, salinity, sea surface temperature, and other parameters were collected during 4 trans-Pacific crossings in 2016 and 2017 on the container ship Cap Blanche. Cruise names and expocodes: CB2016_10 (AG5W20161019), CB2017_01 (AG5W20170115), CB2017_03 (AG5W20170312), CB2017_05 (AG5W20170507). All cruises were transits between the North American West Coast and New Zealand. This effort was conducted in support of NOAA's Climate Program Office (CPO), and Ocean Acidification Program (OAP).
