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: CTD, underway, and vessel-mounted ADCP data collected from the R/V POINT SUR (PS16-09) in the Gulf of Mexico from 2015-09-14 - 2015-09-19 (NCEI Accession 0256318)
Abstract: This data package contains CTD and underway data from R/V Point Sur cruise PS16-09 in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The data were collected 2015-09-14 to 2015-09-19 and include six stations; vessel-mounted ADCP current measurements; and navigation, atmospheric, and surface water measurements from the vessel underway sensors. Measured variables include temperature, salinity, current velocities, dissolved oxygen, fluorescence, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, and barometric pressure.
