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: | WATER TEMPERATURE and Other Data from DRIFTING PLATFORM From Chukchi Sea - NW Coast of Alaska from 1981-12-19 to 1982-01-01 (NODC Accession 8500079) |
| Abstract: | The data were collected by Flow Industries, Inc. under contract number 03-78-B01-61 to NOAA . The data are primarily from drifting ice buoys and were collected in the Chukchi Sea, NW Coast of Alaska during the period December 19, 1981 to January 1, 1982 from six drifting buoys as part of Flow Project Icespil III. Three of the buoys have current and/or pressure records. |

| Supplementary information: | These data files are in NODC F156 format. This format is described at http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f156.html and the codes used in this format are listed at http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f156.txt. 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, the NODC reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis. Points of contact for this data set include: Contact info: Agency: FLOW RESEARCH CO.
