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: | Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from DARSHAK and DEEPAK in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea from 1979-05-02 to 1979-08-01 (NCEI Accession 8700352) |
| Abstract: | These data comprise XBT and MBT log sheets collected in the Arabian sea and the Bay of Bengal from May 16, 1979 to August 1, 1979. These data were collected by the Naval Hydrographic Office during the MONEX-79 cruise. DARSHAK and DEEPAK ships were used to collect the data. 869 stations were sampled. Log sheets were submitted by D. Sugunakara Rao, Senior Scientist in Government of India. |

| 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. Points of contact for this data set include: Contact info: Agency: NAVAL HYDROGRAPHIC OFFICE PI: Rao, Sugunakara Address: address: NOT AVAILABLE city: DEHRA DUN state: UTTAR PRAD postal: NOT AVAILABLE country: INDIA |
