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: Chemical, laboratory analyses and physical oceanographic data collected aboard the GYRE in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-09-26 to 2010-09-28 in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill event (NODC Accession 0074905)
Abstract: Chemical, laboratory analyses and physical oceanographic data were collected aboard the GYRE in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-09-26 to 2010-09-28 in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Event on April 20, 2010, by the Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU), which consisted of multiple government and corporate agencies. These data include Carbon - Total Organic, Metals, Sediment Properties, Semivolatile Organic Compounds, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) and Volatile Organic Compounds. The instruments used to collect these data included bottle along with other physical sampling devices. The analytical chemistry data are provisional and provide results of onshore laboratory analysis of water and sediment samples. (NODC Accession 0074905)
