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: Phytoplankton and other data collected using net and other instruments in the North Atlantic Ocean from NOAA Ship RESEARCHER and other platforms from 1978-02-15 to 1980-05-05 (NCEI Accession 9000075)
Abstract: The data in this accession were collected as part of Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS). Ships ENDEAVOR and NOAA Ship RESEARCHER were used by Atlantic Oceanographic Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), Miami, FL to collect the data. The data was submitted by Ms. Carol Reese from OCD NOAA in Miami. The biological/nutrient data is in JGOFS format and include the following parameters: temperature, salinity, oxygen, nutrients, organic matter, pigments, chlorophyll-a, phaeophytin, productivity data, and photosynthesis light curves. The projects are named Role of Organics in the Marine Environment (ROME) and Subtropical Underwater (SUW). Marine pigments, productivity and associated chemistry data from the ROME I and II, and SUW projects are reported in files containing separate reference numbers. There are three reference numbers which represent each cruise: L00938 = ROME I, November-December 1979, R/V Endeavor L00939 = ROME II, April-May 1980, NOAA Ship Researcher L00940 = SUW, February-March 1978.

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.
