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 measurements found in dataset XBT taken from the RMAS NEWTON (CALL SIGN GURN - launched 1975), DISCOVERY (R/V; call sign GLNE; built 12.1962; IMO5090660) and other platforms in the North Atlantic, Arctic and other locations from 1984 to 2000 (NODC Accession 0000722)
Abstract: Release of ships of opportunity XBT data compiled by the Maritime Environment Information Centre at the UKHO. The data represents 5 years (1995 - 2000) of archived SOOP XBT observations. The dataset contains 7214 observations from various vessels (see vessel summary), the data ranges from years 1984 to 2000. Previously to 1995 the data was released annually to the oceanographic community through ICES and US NODC, World Data Centre A.
