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: | Benthic faunal sampling adjacent to the Barbers Point ocean outfall, Oahu, Hawaii, 1986-1998 (NODC Accession 9900098) |
Abstract: | Benthic fauna in the vicinity of the Barbers Point (Honouliuli) ocean outfall were sampled from 1986-1998. To assess the environmental quality, sediment grain size and sediment chemistry were measured. To identify the fauna, mollusk species and non-mollusk species sitings were tabulated. Stations were located both within and on the boundary of the zone of initial dilution (ZID) and at distances of 1.2 to 2 km from the ZID boundary. In summary, the response patterns of benthic fauna near the Barbers Point ocean outfall showed little or no indication of a strong influence by the diffuser effluent. |

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.
