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: | PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY and LIGHT INTENSITY site samples data collected in the South Pacific Ocean on the NATHANIEL B. PALMER cruise NBP0103 as part of the Southern Ocean GLOBEC project from 2001-04-29 to 2001-06-02 (NODC Accession 0112637) |
| Abstract: | NODC Accession 0112637 includes discrete sample, site samples, biological and physical data collected aboard the NATHANIEL B. PALMER during cruise NBP0103 in the South Pacific Ocean from 2001-04-29 to 2001-06-02. These data include PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY and LIGHT INTENSITY. The instruments used to collect these data include bottle. These data were collected by Maria Vernet of University of California-San Diego as part of Southern Ocean GLOBEC. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-07-25. The following is the text of the abstract provided by BCO-DMO: Production vs Irradiance A short note on the "Southern Ocean Grid System": The grid is a Cartesian plane covering the sample region in which distances are easy to calculate. The grid system used for SOGLOBEC is a universal transverse mercator (UTM) projection with a certain base point and rotation. The base point was chosen in the far south and the rotation was chosen to create one axis along the peninsula, and the other offshore. The units of UTM are meters, but the points are chosen in km rounded to the nearest km. Negative numbers mean that samples were taken southwest of the y axis or southeast of the x axis. For more details see: Complete explanation of the Southern Ocean grid system. (http://globec.whoi.edu/so-dir/soglobec.grid.txt) Reference: Platt, T, and Jassby, A.D., 1976.
