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: Binned profiles of CTD measurements from R/V Endeavor cruise EN640 from June-July 2019 (NCEI Accession 0278009)
Abstract: This dataset contains biological, chemical, optical, and physical data collected on R/V Endeavor during cruise EN640 in the Caribbean Sea and North Atlantic Ocean from 2019-06-15 to 2019-07-07. These data include Oxygen in volts, PAR, beam attenuation, conductivity, depth, dissolved Oxygen, fluorescence, potential temperature, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, sigma-theta, sound velocity, water pressure, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird, LI-COR Biospherical PAR Sensor, Sea-Bird SBE 43 Dissolved Oxygen Sensor, Wet Labs CSTAR Transmissometer, and Wet Labs ECO-AFL/FL Fluorometer. These data were collected by Richard N. Peterson of Coastal Carolina University, Joseph Montoya of Georgia Institute of Technology, and Ajit Subramaniam of Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory as part of the "Collaborative Research: Impact of the Amazon River Plume on Nitrogen Availability and Planktonic Food Web Dynamics in the Western Tropical North Atlantic (Amazon River Plume Nitrogen)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2021-04-23.
