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: Currents, temperature, conductivity, attenuation, and sigma-theta data from moorings deployed off the coast of Orange County, CA from platforms ROBERT GORDON SPROUL and YELLOWFIN from June 13, 2001 to January 22, 2003 (NODC Accession 0067572)
Abstract: A large number of moorings were deployed in the summer of 2001 off Huntington Beach CA to monitor coastal ocean process that transport suspended material across the shelf. This program was supported by the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) to determine if bacteria from their ocean outfall was responsible for the continuing contamination of local beaches. The study determined that OSCD's outfall was not the cause of beach contamination.
