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: Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from OSHORO MARU in the Bay of Bengal, North Pacific Ocean and North Atlantic Ocean from 1987-11-27 to 1988-09-04 (NCEI Accession 9700003)
Abstract: Hydrochemical, hydrophysical, and other data were collected from the OSHORO MARU from November 27, 1987 to September 4, 1988. Data were submitted by Katsuji Matsunaga from the Japanese Hydrographic Office. Additional funding for digitizing historic data was provided by GODAR. These data were collected using bottle casts in the Atlantic Ocean.

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, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
