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: Water quality, sediment grab, and moored tripod data and CTD casts collected from R/V LAKE GUARDIAN, R/V LAURENTIAN, R/V NEESKAY, R/V SHENEHON, and fixed moorings in Lake Michigan, in the Great Lakes region for the Episodic Events - Great Lakes Experiment (EEGLE) from 1997-09-30 to 2001-05-02 (NCEI Accession 0249576)
Abstract: In August, 1997 the NOAA Coastal Ocean Program and National Science Foundation Coastal Ocean Processes began a jointly funded program to study the impact of episodic plume events on sediment and constituent transport and subsequent ecological effects in Lake Michigan referred to as the Episodic Events: Great Lakes Experiment (EEGLE) project. The EEGLE project was coordinated by NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory. This is one of three data accessions associated with the project. The accessions include: 1) biological and water quality observations; 2) sediment observations; and 3) oceanographic observations.

This accession contains the following data:
- sediment trap samples collected to measure constituents (sediment size, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and radioactive isotopes) and mass flux,
- mass by particle size,
- radionuclides in sediment cores,
- transmissometer measurements,
- bottom observations with a tripod (current speed and direction, water temperature, wave orbital velocity, conductivity, optical attenuation, total suspended material), and
- water samples measuring total suspended matter (TSM).
