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: | Physical and meteorological data collected from COLUMBUS ISELIN in North Atlantic Ocean from sediment sampler; 28 October 1975 to 05 November 1975 (NODC Accession 7601289) |
| Abstract: | Physical and meteorological data were collected using sediment sampler and other instruments from COLUMBUS ISELIN in the North Atlantic Ocean. Data were collected from 28 October 1975 to 05 November 1975 by Virginia Institute of Marine Science in Gloucester Point with support from the Outer Continental Shelf - Mid Atlantic (OCS-Mid Atlantic) project. |

| Supplementary information: | Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, the NODC reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
