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: |
Temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and other hydrographic profile data from R/V Sea Diver and R/V Edwin Link in Exuma Sound, Bahamas, 1993-1995 (NCEI Accession 0114379) |
| Abstract: |
This set of hydrographic casts are from the Exuma Sound Circulation Studies project. The project included CTD casts, mooring deployments and drifter-tracking and hydrographic studies undertaken to investigate the physical oceanography of Exuma Sound, Bahamas. The goal of the program was to understand how the surface circulation affects larval recruitment in the sound. This project was supported by a grant to Dr. Barbara Hickey of the University of Washington from the Caribbean Marine Research Center, a part of the NOAA/National Undersea Research Program. |
