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: |
Sediment quality data collected in conjunction with NOAA's National Status and Trends Program to examine bioeffects associated with toxicants in Puget Sound sediments, May - June 1999 (NCEI Accession 0000592) |
| Abstract: |
Sediment samples were collected from multiple locations in the Puget Sound in support of NOAA's National Status and Trends Programs to measure the bioeffects associated with toxicants. Data were collected from 31 May 1999 to 30 June 1999. Biological data include amphipod survival rates, infauna taxon counts, and urchin fertilization rates. Chemical data include Microtox and Cytochrome toxin results. Other data include sediment size fractions. |
