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: Historical oceanographic data and climatologies in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill event in the Gulf of Mexico (NODC Accession 0064867)
Abstract: Data products and in situ oceanographic data collected as part of the Deepwater Horizon Event in the Gulf of Mexico (May 2010). The climatological fields detailed here are being released as an experimental version to help with the tracking and understanding the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The fields have not been fully quality controlled and may contain erroneous values. Further, the CTD data from the R/V Brooks McCall have not undergone rigorous quality control.
