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 CALIFORNIA STAR, FUA KAVENGA and other platforms in the NE Pacific from 1991-01-25 to 1993-11-29 (NODC Accession 9600004) |
| Abstract: | The water depth and temperature data were collected in NE Pacific (limit-180) from multiple ships between January 25, 1991 and November 29, 1993. Three originator's high resolution bathythermograph (XBT) network data files containing 5,482 XBTs collected from commercial ships were submitted via file transfer protocol by Dr. Dean Roemmich, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, CA via Lisa Lehmann. |

| 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.
