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: | ABSORPTION, SCATTERING, ATTENUATION COEFFICIENTS and Other Data from SATELLITE From World-Wide Distribution from 19850331 to 19871107 (Accession No. - 9000199) |
| Abstract: | Global crossover difference data derived from sea level observations collected during the first phase of operations of the U.S. Navy Geodetic Satellite (GEOSAT). The set of two tapes (NODC working tape #'s D03260, and D03261, NODC Reference Number L01017) contain crossover difference records (XDR's) from the Wilkes Antarctica region. The two tapes are part of a set of GEOSAT tapes submitted by Ms. Nancy Doyle of NOAA/NOS (Rockville, MD); additional GEOSAT data from other ocean regions is filed under NODC accession number 9000068, NODC Reference #'s L00950-L00959. Data for each region are held on two magnetic tapes per region, with each set of two tapes filed under a single reference number (LXXXXX). More GEOSAT crossover data archived at NODC is filed under: Accession # Reference # Region(s) 9000190 L00960-L00961 N Atlantic and Indian Ocean 9000213 L01018 Indian Ocean and SE Pacific 9100031 L01183 Georgia Antarctica 9100053 L01184 Fuego Antarctica |

| 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, the NODC reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
