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: |
ADCP velocity, echo intensity, and compass heading from two near-bottom moorings in the south equatorial Atlantic Ocean from 2009-12-01 to 2010-03-23 (NCEI Accession 0209071) |
| Abstract: |
These dataset contains ADCP velocity, echo intensity, and compass heading from two near-bottom moorings in the south equatorial Atlantic Ocean in the Congo submarine canyon during ~3 month period from 2009-12-01 to 2010-03-23. Two ADCPs with acoustic frequencies of 300 kHz and 75 kHz were deployed on separate moorings placed in the channel axis 700 m apart and at ~2000 m water depth. They acquired data over a range of ~80 m above the seafloor (300 kHz) and 220 m above the seafloor (75 kHz). Data are in netcdf. |
