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: | Southern Ocean Atlas from Lamont-Doherty Geophysical Observatory of Columbia University based on data collected from 1947-01-01 to 1980-12-31 (NCEI Accession 8200203) |
Abstract: | This dataset was designed to support studies of the physical and chemical properties of the water column. An objective of the study was to provide a high quality uniform array of deep reaching oceanographic station data. The format consist of 1) a data file of grid points derived from observed data for computer-based numerical analysis and 2) graphics or objective contouring of the weighted data set. |

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.
