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: Surface underway measurements of fugacity of carbon dioxide (fCO2, seawater and atmospheric), water temperature and salinity from 7 cruises in the equatorial Pacific Ocean, collected onboard the NOAA ship Ka'imimoana in 2008 (NCEI Accession 0081043)
Abstract: This archival package contains data from underway fCO2 (seawater and atmospheric), temperature, and salinity measurements collected on 7 equatorial Pacific cruises from 2008-02-02 to 2008-11-16 as part of a ship-of-opportunity time-series. Cruise names and expocodes: KA2008_01 (33KM20080202), KA2008_02 (33KM20080312), KA2008_03 (33KM20080430), KA2008_04 (33KM20080607), KA2008_05 (33KM20080806), KA2008_06 (33KM20080906), KA2008_07 (33KM20081017). Since 1982, NOAA's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory has made underway CO2 observations in the equatorial Pacific as a companion project to the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array. This effort was conducted with the support of NOAA's Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program.
