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 SG677 deployed by Gulf of Mexico Coastal Ocean Observing System (GCOOS) and The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) in the Gulf of Mexico from 2021-08-11 to 2021-08-18 (NCEI Accession 0242927)
Abstract: Underwater glider data gathered by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)

The National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) received the data in this dataset 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.
