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: NCCOS Assessment: Modeling at-sea density of marine birds to support renewable energy planning on the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf of the contiguous United States (NCEI Accession 0242882)
Abstract: This dataset provides seasonal spatial rasters of predicted long-term (1980-2017) density of 33 individual species and 13 taxonomic groups of marine birds throughout the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) and adjacent waters off the contiguous United States at 2-km spatial resolution. Two indications of the uncertainty associated with the model predictions are also provided: 1) seasonal spatial layers indicating areas with no survey effort and 2) seasonal spatial rasters of the precision of predicted density of each species/group characterized as its coefficient of variation (CV). Predicted density should always be considered in conjunction with these two indications of uncertainty. This dataset also includes spatial rasters of environmental predictor variables that were used in the predictive modeling.
