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, MBT, and bottle casts in the Arctic, North Atlantic and North Pacific Oceans from the SACKVILLE and other platforms from 1928-05-12 to 1998-11-03 (NODC Accession 0000448)
Abstract: CTD, MBT, bottle and other data were collected in the Arctic, North Atlantic, and North Pacific Oceans from the SACKVILLE and other platforms from 12 May 1928 to 03 November 1998. Data include temperature, salinity, and alkalinity profiles. Data also include concentration profiles of ammonium, phosphate, silicate, nitrate, and nitrite. Data were submitted by the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) of Canada and are in the MEDS ASCII format.
