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: Water temperature from thermistor deployed at coral reef sites in the Indian Ocean, Red Sea, and others from 1987-11-02 to 2016-06-21 (NCEI Accession 0170826)
Abstract: In situ temperature time series were uploaded as multiple NetCDF file types, each corresponding to a different time series for a different reef site. Within each file, the pertinent variables are:
name - name of reef and/or reef habitat
times - vector of sampling times, in MATLAB serial date number format
temps - vector of temperature samples in units of °C
latitude - temperature logger latitude, in decimal degrees
longitude - temperature logger longitude, in decimal degrees
depth - temperature logger depth, in m
Temperature time series in this data set were collected either as in situ loggers on weather buoys, or as in situ loggers moored at various water column depths or directly at coral depth.
