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: PRESSURE - WATER and Other Data from UNKNOWN From World-Wide Distribution from 19850401 to 19901130 (NODC Accession 9100014)
Abstract: This data set contains the Navy's Master Oceanographic Observation Data Set (MOODS) declassified data from April 1, 1985-November 30, 1990. This data which contains only the radio declassified radio message bathythermograph reports has been quality improved to remove duplicates, identify platforms. The data was submitted by A.D. Stroud of Ocean Applications Group, Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center, Monterey, CA. The data are binary in the MOODS format. The documentation includes data distribution maps. *Original data was submitted on tape A01351.

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.
