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: Oceanographic and surface meteorological data collected from RECON Alpena, Thunder Bay Buoy, by Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory and assembled by Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) in the Great Lakes and Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary region from 2016-05-19 to 2017-10-26 (NCEI Accession 0137891)
Abstract: NCEI Accession 0137891 contains oceanographic and surface meteorological data in netCDF formatted files, which follow the Climate and Forecast metadata convention (CF) and the Attribute Convention for Data Discovery (ACDD). Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory collected the data from RECON Alpena, Thunder Bay Buoy, an in-situ moored station, in the Great Lakes and Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary. GLOS, which assembles data from Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory and other sub-regional coastal and ocean observing systems of the Great Lakes region of the United States, submitted the data to NCEI as part of the Integrated Ocean Observing System Data Assembly Centers (IOOS DACs) Data Stewardship Program. Each month, NCEI adds to the Accession the data collected during the previous month.

Supplementary information: The IOOS vocabulary of oceanographic and meteorological parameters is at http://mmisw.org/ont/ioos/parameter. The mapping of this vocabulary to the CF standard names vocabulary is at http://mmisw.org/ont/ioos/map_ioos_cf. The netCDF data files in the Accession use both vocabularies.

In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number.
