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: Full resolution physical trajectory profile data from glider amlr02 deployed by SWFSC Antarctic Ecosystem Research Division in the Southern Ocean from 2019-12-06 to 2020-03-12 (NCEI Accession 0259502)
Abstract: These data are part of the U.S. Antarctic Marine Living Resources (AMLR) Program Operation FREEBYRD. FREEBYRD is a long term program to replace ship-based surveys with autonomous vehicles to estimate Antarctic krill biomass in support of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). This delayed dataset contains CTD, oxygen, chlorophyll a, CDOM and optical backscatter measurements.

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. Data files may be either low resolution real-time or full resolution. Full resolution files are designated as "delayed" in the netCDF file name.
