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: |
CTD and water current data collected from R/V Brooks McCall southeast of the Mississippi River Delta in Gulf of Mexico for the GISR:G02 cruise from 2012-07-27 to 2012-08-09 (NODC Accession 0130372) |
| Abstract: |
A chemical tracer was released at approximately 1100m depth east of the Mississippi Canyon. Later, CTD data and water samples were collected to measure tracer concentrations to determine initial transport and dispersion of the tracer. RAFOS floats were released to track the water movement. |
