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 data collected during the EX1603 Hohonu Moana: Exploring the Deep Waters off Hawai`I expedition on the NOAA Ship OKEANOS EXPLORER in the North Pacific Ocean from February 23, 2016 - March 18, 2016 (NODC Accession 0150527) |
| Abstract: | The ship conducted 24 hour operations consisting of daytime ROV dives and evening/nighttime mapping operations including during transit. During this cruise we conducted primarily 8 hour ROV dives with occasional 10 or 12 hour dives on particularly interesting or deep water dive sites, as staffing allowed. ROV operations focused in depths between 250 and 6,000 meters and included high-resolution visual surveys and limited sample collection. Mapping operations were conducted in 250m of water and deeper, and included transit and overnight multibeam, water column backscatter, and sub-bottom data collection. Opportunistic CTD rosette operations were requested to collect more information about the environmental parameters at ROV dives sites, or opportunistically at selected sites where collecting the data is considered important to understanding the physical or chemical properties of the overlying water column. ROV and mapping operations were not conducted in state waters. Dive(s) were also devoted to searching for ship's lost during the World War II Battle of Midway with an emphasis on finding the main wreck of the Japanese Aircraft Carriers Kaga. Data collected by OER that was considered sensitive will be protected from direct public release until such time as a final determination can be made as to permanent protection. If data are found to be sensitive because they reveal the location of a historically significant cultural resource, Section 304 of the National Historic Preservation Act provides that the head of a Federal agency or other public official shall withhold from public disclosure information about the location, character, or ownership of a historic property when disclosure may cause a significant invasion of privacy; risk harm to the historic property; or impede the use of a traditional religious site by practitioners. Data collected by the EX that is considered sensitive will be archived in a location where it can be withheld from public disclosure. |

| Supplementary information: | The NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research sponsored the collection of these data. EX1603 Hohonu Moana: Exploring the Deep Waters off Hawai`I produced the following data: Ship Navigation; Ship Sensor Raw Data (SCS Data - Air Temp, Barometer, Doppler Depth, Event Data, Met, Relative Humidity, SAMOS, Sound Velocity, Thermosalinograph, Water Temperature, Wind Direction, Wind Speed) (Profile Data - asvp, CTD, XBT); ADCP Data; Submersible Navigation; Submersible Sensor Raw Data (ROV CTD, SEIRIOS CTD and VEHICLES); Multibeam and Singlebeam Bathymetric Data. Other NOAA offices hold the data that NODC has not archived under this Accession. |
