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: | CTD, and plankton relative abundance data collected during R/V Bellows cruise BE-1307 in the DeSoto Canyon, Gulf of Mexico from 2012-10-13 to 2012-10-15 (NCEI Accession 0175369) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains conductivity, temperature and depth data, and plankton species relative abundance data collected from 9 sites during R/V Bellows cruise BE-1307 for the offshore shelf of the Florida Panhandle Bight at the head of DeSoto Canyon from October 13-15, 2012. Plankton abundance data reports the location, date, time, and length of tow for each sample. Plankton species are categorized as Ceratium spp., Dinophysis spp., other dinoflagellates, Chaetoceros spp., Rhizosolenia/Guinardia, Eucampia/Hemiaulus, other chain-forming diatoms, Thalassionema spp., Nitzschiod diatoms, other diatoms, Cyanobacteria (Trichodesmium spp.), and Zooplankton. Abundances are recorded as counts and as percentages of the total sample. Diatoms and dinoflagellates counted as cells, cyanobacteria as colonies/filaments, zooplankton as individuals. |
