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: BACTERIA - BACTERIAL DENSITY and Other Data from USS CHAUMONT from 1995-01-09 to 1995-12-26 (NCEI Accession 9800092)
Abstract: This dataset includes bacteria abundance and rates of thymidine and leucine incorporation (measure of productivity) from the separate work of Dr. Farooq Azam, Scripps Institute of Oceanography and Dr. Hugh Ducklow, Virginia Institute of Marine Science. Samples collected from the U.S. JGOFS Arabian Sea basin study. Each file is self documenting and contains supporting meta data.

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.
