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: Water Quality in Fagatele Bay, National Marine Sanctuary of American Samoa, from 2019-04-22 to 2019-04-26 (NCEI Accession 0247462) |
| Abstract: |
This dataset represents water quality chemistry information for Fagatele Bay, a unit of the National Marine Sanctuary of American Samoa (NMSAS). Contaminant groups quantified were: pesticides, personal care products, pharmaceuticals and hydrocarbons. Trace metals analysis of benthic sediments was also conducted. Additionally, standard suite of nutrient parameters (nitrate, nitrite, ammonium, urea, total nitrogen, orthophosphate, total phosphorus and silica), as well as tracers of human waste (sucralose and caffeine) were quantified at eight targeted sites (bottom samples) during the same time period. |
