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: SAMOS project underway oceanographic and quality-controlled meteorological data collected aboard the Falkor from 2016-10-01 to 2016-10-31 (NCEI Accession 0167442)
Abstract: The data logging system on the Falkor recorded underway oceanographic and meteorological data from various instruments while cruising in the Banda Sea, Ceram Sea or Seram Sea, Molucca Sea, North Pacific Ocean, Philippine Sea and Timor Sea from 2016-10-01 to 2016-10-31. During this period, as part of the Shipboard Automated Meteorological and Oceanographic System (SAMOS) project, the data logging system sent the data daily via e-mail to Florida State University (FSU), where the Center for Ocean-Atmospheric Prediction Studies (COAPS) quality-controlled (QCed) the meteorological data. COAPS submitted four versions of the data to the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI): the original data e-mailed by the data logging system, first-level (automatically and merged) QCed data, and second-level (visually) QCed data. NCEI Accession 0167442 contains all these data.
