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 profiles from various platforms in the Tropical Pacific Ocean from 1985-01-01 to 1986-12-31 (NCEI Accession 8700222)
Abstract: This dataset contains TOGA data from 1985 to 1986 from the French IGOSS data center collected in the Tropical Pacific ocean. The data contains temperature profiles (bathythermograph and TESAC data where salinity has been deleted from TESAC), reported in GF3 format. The data was submitted by Institut Français de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la Mer (IFREMER), Brest, France.

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.
