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: Near-Realtime oceanograhic data collected by the FLOATS in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill event in the Gulf of Mexico (NODC Accession 0065725)
Abstract: Data products and in situ oceanographic data collected in response to the Deepwater Horizon Event in the Gulf of Mexico (May 2010). The Global Temperature and Salinity Profile Programme (GTSPP) received the near-realtime data as Bathy messages for both the NOAA42 and NOAA49 Aircraft from the Global Telecommunication System (GTS). The data are available in three formats, CSV (comma separated value), NetCDF (network common data form) and the GTSPP ASCII formats. An inventory file is available, including plots of each vertical profile. A .kmz file is available for Google Earth display.
