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: Ocean currents from lowered acoustic Doppler current profilers (LADCP) of the Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigations Program (GO-SHIP) aboard NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown cruise RB1606 along WOCE-Line P18 from 2016-11-12 to 2017-02-03 (NCEI Accession 0222211)
Abstract: This dataset contains the Lowered Acoustic Doppler Current Profile (LADCP) estimates of ocean currents and shear in a profile to deep waters from the Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigations Program (GO-SHIP). A raw and a processed version are given in each dataset, both of which include ancillary data streams from CTD, ship navigation, and shipboard ADCP. The data were collected on NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown for cruise RB1606 on World Ocean Circulation Experiment line P18 from 2016-11-12 to 2017-02-03. This cruise is part of the NCEI collection for GO-SHIP LADCP. The finalized datasets have been assembled and submitted to NCEI by the LADCP data management staff of University of Hawaii and the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. The originators of each LADCP set are defined within the accession documentation. Data files for the processed set are in ASCII text, PDF, and NetCDF. Raw data are given in proprietary binary files and made available in case a user prefers to reprocess the set from “level-0” status.
