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: | Marine Pigments, Productivity, and Associated Chemistry Data Dictionary Release 4.0 from North American Coastline-South from 1965-01-01 to 1992-12-31 (NCEI Accession 9300056) |
| Abstract: | This dataset consists of Marine Data Dictionary, Release 4.0, including phytoplankton pigments, primary productivity, and associated marine chemistry data collected worldwide from 1,860 stations between January 1965 and December 1992 was submitted by Dr. William Balch, Rosenstiel School of Marine Science, University of Miami in association with the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS). The data contained 52 files and 6,589 records. The data format written by Dr. Balch was designed to archive phytoplankton pigment and productivity data. A hardcopy of the README.TXT file was submitted in with other documentation; it includes a file list, data parameters, record layout, field descriptions, and descriptions of the parameter codes. |
