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: | Sea surface temperature (SST) and surface current data collected from the Mar Mostro during the around-the-world Volvo Ocean Race (VOR) from 2011-11-05 to 2012-07-12 (NCEI Accession 0130694) |
| Abstract: | Navigation, surface current, sea surface temperature, wind, and atmospheric pressure data collected by the Mar Mostro during the around-the-world Volvo Ocean Race (VOR) 2011-2012 (http://www.volvooceanrace.com/en/home.html). The Mar Mostro is a 21.5m sail-powered racing yacht that was manned by the Puma Ocean Racing team (sponsored by the PUMA sports apparel company) and powered by Berg Propulsion of Sweden. Data were provided to the Center for Ocean-Atmospheric Prediction Studies at the Florida State University by Robert Hopkins, Jr. who served as the performance analyst and coach for the Mar Mostro during the 2011-2012 VOR. Co-author for the data was Tom Addis, Navigator and crew member for the team. |
