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: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from IRON PACIFIC, FLINDERS BAY and other platforms from 1994-01-01 to 1994-12-29 (NODC Accession 9500151)
Abstract: The water depth and temperature data was collected as part of Global Temperature- Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP) using 13 different ships by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. The data was collected for the year 1994. The originator's 2,715 drop profiles containing bathythermograph (XBT) data files were submitted by Ann Gronell in GTSPP format via FTP. This data has been replaced. Once on June 6, 1997 and again on July 2, 1997. The last time for hemisphere error.

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.
