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: Near-surface wind velocity, surface atmospheric pressure, and near-surface ocean parameters (temperature, salinity) estimated from in-situ instruments aboard 9 surface ocean drifters in the North Atlantic Ocean by NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory during the Atlantic Tradewind Ocean-Atmosphere Mesoscale Interaction Campaign (ATOMIC), near South America, 2020-01-23 to 2020-04-29 (NCEI accession 0225194).
Abstract: The Atlantic Tradewind OceanAtmosphere Mesoscale Interaction Campaign (ATOMIC) was a field campaign held January-February 2020 in the tropical North Atlantic east of Barbados. The campaign, the U.S. complement to the European field campaign called EUREC4A, was aimed at better understanding cloud and air-sea interaction processes. ATOMIC included measurements from a NOAA WP-3D Orion "Hurricane Hunter" aircraft, the research ship Ronald H. Brown, and unpiloted vehicles launched from Barbados and from the Ronald H. Brown. This dataset consists of surface drifter data in netcdf files.
