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: Pigments from HPLC analysis of bottle samples collected in the Sargasso Sea aboard the OCEANUS as part of the Eddies Dynamics, Mixing, Export, and Species composition (EDDIES) project between June 12, 2004 and August 25, 2005 (NCEI Accession 0067471)
Abstract: This dataset contains biological, chemical, laboratory analyses, and profile data collected on OCEANUS in the North Atlantic Ocean and Sargasso Sea from 2004-06-12 to 2005-08-25. These data were collected by Dennis McGillicuddy of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the Eddies Dynamics, Mixing, Export, and Species composition (EDDIES) project(s). The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2010-06-23.
