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: Analysed L4 foundation sea surface temperature over Galapagos and Pacific Central America for 2008-02-21 (NODC Accession 0039999)
Abstract: The ODYSSEA Galapagos and Pacific Central America Sea Surface Temperature is produced at Ifremer/CERSAT. It provides a daily cloud-free field of foundation sea surface temperature at 2 km resolution (0.02 degree). It is generated by merging all available satellite sensors for sea surface temperature (micro-wave and infra-red), after careful intercalibration using AATSR sensor as reference (previously re-calibrated using all available in situ data). The development of this real-time sea surface temperature at Ifremer/CERSAT is supported by ESA initially in the frame of Medspiration project.
