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: Chlorophyll and other data from Biscayne Bay from 1986-03-01 to 1987-02-28 (NCEI Accession 8700360)
Abstract: This dataset contains chlorophyll data from Biscayne Bay, collected by the University of Miami from March 1986 to February 1987 as part of the assessment of Plankton Resources and their Environment Interactions in Biscayne Bay, Florida program. The principal investigator was Dr. Larry Brand. The data parameters include: temperature salinity, chlorophyll-a, phaeopigments, percent chlorophyll-a (5-60 microns and > 60 microns). The data are in Lotus 123 format.

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.
