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: Physical trajectory profile data from glider Reveille deployed by Gulf of Mexico Coastal Ocean Observing System (GCOOS) and TAMU - College Station; Geochemical and Environmental Research Group (TAMU GERG) in the Gulf of Mexico from 2021-06-13 to 2021-06-17 (NCEI Accession 0239167)
Abstract: This mission is funded by Shell Exploration & Production Company. The glider was deployed off of the coast of Freeport, Texas just off the shelf break and will operate in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico for the duration of the planned mission. The near-real time in situ temperature and salinity water column data collected as a result of this project is intended to be utilized for data assimilation to improve the accuracy of hurricane models.

The National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) received the data in this archival package from the Integrated Ocean Observing System's National Glider Data Assembly Center (IOOS NGDAC). The IOOS NGDAC received the data in one or more netCDF files comprising an entire glider deployment. The data are measurements of physical oceanographic properties such as temperature, salinity, conductivity, and density. The IOOS NGDAC checked the files for compliance to their netCDF file convention, aggregated the files into a single netCDF file, and then submitted the file to NCEI for long-term preservation.
