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: Sediment Quality in Puget Sound Year 2 - Central Puget Sound - December 2000 (NCEI Accession 0000425)
Abstract: Biological, chemical, geological, and other data were collected from R/V Kittiwake from 01 June 1998 to 01 July 1998. Data were submitted by the Washington State Department of Ecology (WADOE) as part of a 3 year, 100 site, study of toxins in the Puget Sound. Biological data include infauna surveys, amphipod bioassays, and percent urchin fertilization. Chemical data include results of tests for toxins by cytochrome and microtoxology. Geological data include determination of grain fractions.
