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: | Documentation for the NOAA Real-Time Ocean Forecast System (RTOFS) models from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NODC Accession 0026419) |
| Abstract: | This NODC accession contains documentation files that apply to all data collections archived at NODC relating to the NOAA Real-Time Ocean Forecast System (RTOFS) models generated by the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Prediction.
The NOAA Real-Time Ocean Forecast System (Atlantic) dataset comprises output fields from the daily operational RTOFS model runs conducted at the National Centers for Atmospheric Prediction. Each model run produces a series of gridded fields containing results of model computations for ocean temperature, salinity, currents, sea-surface height, and possibly other properties. The fields are encoded in the standard GRIdded Binary (GRIB) file format. NODC compiles series of files into monthly accessions to facilitate archival and public access. |
