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: Oceanographic and surface meteorological parameter data collected from moored Realtime Coastal Observation Network (ReCON) Muskegon M45 Buoy, Lake Michigan, in the Great Lakes region by NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory from 2016-04-12 to 2019-10-07 (NCEI Accession 0215154)
Abstract: NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory collected the data from moored Realtime Coastal Observation Network (ReCON) Muskegon M45 Buoy, Lake Michigan, an in-situ moored station, in the Great Lakes. Observations were collected during the open water seasons of 2016, 2017, 2019.

The ReCON buoy provides continuous, real-time observations facilitates modification of sampling parameters in anticipation of episodic events, facilitates collection of field samples in response to episodic events, supports long term research, and contributes to sensor and system development. Parameters collected include chlorophyll, dissolved oxygen, water temperature, other oceanographic parameters, and meteorological parameters. The block of text at the beginning of each file contains information about the location and sensor used to collect data and the data headers followed by the observed data. Column 1 of the data is the timestamp, column 2 is the observed data, and column 3, where applicable, the QARTOD flag. Five QARTOD tests were run including gross range, climatological, spike, rate of change, and flat line tests. The highest value from the five tests were included under the “Qartod” column. If data were known to be invalid, that line of data was removed from the dataset.
