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: Temperature, salinity, and nutrients data from CTD and bottle casts in the Arctic, North Atlantic and North Pacific Oceans from multiple platforms from 1963-04-30 to 1999-02-15 (NODC Accession 0000418)
Abstract: CTD, bottle, and other data were collected from the Arctic Ocean, North Atlantic Ocean, and North Pacific from multiple platforms from 30 April 1963 to 15 February 1999. Data include temperature and salinity profiles as well as concentrations of oxygen, phosphate, nitrate, chlorophyll a and ammonia. Data were submitted by the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) of Canada and are in the MEDS ASCII format.
