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 temperature, salinity, current velocity, and temperature variance dissipation collected from EM-APEX floats during the SQUID project from 2023-02-19 to 2024-09-18 (NCEI Accession 0305618)
Abstract: Collection of temperature, salinity, ocean currents, and temperature variance dissipation (chi) profiles gridded on 1-meter pressure levels from profiling EM-APEX floats deployed in all ocean basins during the Sampling Quantitative Internal Waves Distribution (SQUID) experiment funded by the National Science Foundation as part of the Global Internal Waves project of the National Oceanographic Partnership Program (NOPP). There are 5 NetCDF files included in this package and are described in the readme.txt provided.
