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: | CURRENT DIRECTION, cloud amount/frequency and other data from SCANDIA, MAKEDA and other platforms in the Coral Sea from 1959-09-17 to 1972-12-30 (NCEI Accession 7700278) |
| Abstract: | These data consists of Moored Current Meters deployed by the Australian ship STRADBROOKE over Moreton Bay, Coral sea. Project was supported by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO). There were 3 stations and 153 casts. The current meter measurements were taken during January 22-26, 1968. Data is available in computer printout format. There are no tapes available. |

| Supplementary information: | Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
