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 oceanographic profile data collected by CTD's and XBT's aboard the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster from 20100701 to 20100718 as part of the GTSPP in response to the 20100420 Deepwater Horizon oil spill event (NODC Accession 0065729)
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 and Tesac messages 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 .kml file is available for Google Earth display.
