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: JGOFS International Collection CD-ROM: CTD, XBT & SeaSoar Data, Arabian Sea Process Study (1990-1997) (NCEI Accession 9900097)
Abstract: "JGOFS International Collection CTD, XBT & SeaSoar Data, Arabian Sea Process Study (1990-1997). This CD-ROM delivers nearly 2,500 profiles of temperature plus, in most cases, salinity and a subset from chlorophyll, dissolved oxygen and optical attenuance. Ships from six nations collected the data during 42 research cruises. The German JGOFS Data Management Office, Kiel produced the data set supported by the members of the JGOFS Data Management Task Team. CD-ROM production was supported by the University of Bergen, Norway through the JGOFS International Project Office"--Electronic data publications home page at: http://ijgofs.whoi.edu/Publications/datasets/datasets.html

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.
