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: Physical, biological, current, and other data from CTD, XBT, ADCP, bottle cast, net casts, and other instruments from the N. E. Atlantic Ocean in support of the OMEX 1 project from 01 April 1993 to 01 December 1995 (NODC Accession 0000172)
Abstract: Physical, biological, current, and other data were collected from CTD, XBT, ADCP, bottle cast, net casts, and other instruments from the N. E. Atlantic Ocean in support of the OMEX 1 project from 01 April 1993 to 01 December 1995. CTD include temperature, salinity, porosity of sediments. Biological parameters include zooplankton species counts. XBT parameters include temperature profiles. ADCP parameters include current speed and direction.
