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 trajectory profile data from glider striper deployed by University of Maryland (UMD) in the Mid Atlantic Bight from 2017-09-07 to 2017-09-27 (NCEI Accession 0239170)
Abstract: Summer Glider Deployment. With UMass Dartmouth's Glider Blue, UM Striper is intended to survey the MAB structure from Cape Cod to Cape Hatteras with a flight over the Southern MAB. Of particular interest is the structure of the offshore cold band or 'Cold Pool.' Blue and Striper flights will be coordinated such that they will be launched at approximately the same time, Blue from New Bedford and Striper from Atlantic City. Launch date is 7 September and planned recovery date is 28 September.

The National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) received the data in this archival package from the Integrated Ocean Observing System's National Glider Data Assembly Center (IOOS NGDAC). The IOOS NGDAC received the data in one or more netCDF files comprising an entire glider deployment. The data are measurements of physical oceanographic properties such as temperature, salinity, conductivity, and density. The IOOS NGDAC checked the files for compliance to their netCDF file convention, aggregated the files into a single netCDF file, and then submitted the file to NCEI for long-term preservation.
