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: Global Near Real-Time Temperature data from XBT casts from the a World-Wide distibution from 14 June 2003 to 25 October 2003 (NODC Accession 0001234)
Abstract: XBT data were collected from MULTIPLE PLATFORMS from a World-Wide distribution. Data were collected by the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) from 14 June 2003 to 25 October 2003. Data were collected in support of the Global Temperature-Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP), the Gulf of Mexico NOAA/NMFS Ship of Opportunity (SOOP) program, and the NOAA Shipboard Environmental Data Acquisition System Program (SEAS).
