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: |
Global stacked sea surface height profiles from Sentinel-3A SARM satellite altimeter data (NCEI Accession 0219900) |
Abstract: |
NetCDF file result_s3a_sarm_stack.nc contains longitude, latitude, number of cycles, sigma, and stacked sea surface height records for 770 Sentinel-3A Synthetic Aperture Radar Mode (SARM) satellite altimeter passes. Repeat cycles were aligned to a common position along a synthetic track having 20239 records between +/-81.419 latitude. Stacking is the median sea surface height profile from multiple repeat cycles. Sigma is the expected one sigma error in a single measurement. The number of cycles is the quantity that passed selection criteria and were included in a stack. Repeat cycles 1 to 56 were used. |
