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: Chemical, physical, and other data from bottle and CTD casts from the KNORR and MELVILLE as part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration / Geochemical Ocean Study (IDOE/GEOSECS) from 1972-07-18 to 1974-06-10 (NCEI Accession 7700525)
Abstract: Chemical, physical, and other data were collected from bottle and CTD casts from the KNORR and MELVILLE from 18 July 1972 to 10 June 1974. Data were collected by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) as part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration / Geochemical Ocean Study (IDOE/GEOSECS). Physical parameters include depth, temperature, salinity, and pressure. Chemical parameters include concentrations of oxygen, phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, and silicate. Analog data are available for this accession by contacting NODC user services.

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.
