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 profile collected using bottle casts and other instruments from the METEOR and other platforms in the North Atlantic Ocean and other locations from 1962-06-03 to 1980-11-20 (NCEI Accession 8000152)
Abstract: Surface Temperature and Salinity data were submitted by BNDO. The data were submitted to BNDO by France, USA, Brazil, Mexico and W. Germany. The data were collected from June 3, 1962 to November 20, 1980 in the Atlantic ocean by various ships. The ocean station data has been processed by NODC to its current data storage format. The formats used to record the originators data submitted to NODC are the April 1977 BNDO format entitled "Le format 'Hydrologie Classique' Au BNDO" which is included in the documentation.

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.
