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: | Currents, backscatter, attenuation, conductivity, temperature, sigma-theta, and pressure from instruments deployed on the Hudson Shelf Valley, North Atlantic Ocean from the SAMANTHA MILLER and the RV CONNECTICUT from April 5th, 2006 through June 21st, 2006 (NODC Accession 0066107) |
| Abstract: | Field experiments have been carried out to understand the transport of sediments and associated contaminants in the Hudson Shelf Valley, offshore of New York. The valley is a sink and potential conduit for the movement of sediments and associated contaminants across the shelf. A spring experiment (2006) explored transport during the period of spring runoff from the Hudson River. The spring experiment was carried out in cooperation with LaTTE (Lagrangian Transport and Tracer Experiment). |
