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: | WATER DEPTH and Other Data from GYRE and Other Platforms From North Atlantic Ocean from 19770505 to 19770525 (NODC Accession 7800460) |
| Abstract: | This entry contains the results from the Outer Continental Shelf study (OCS) benchmark study in the North Atlantic which ran during the month of May 77 from the R/V GYRE. These data were submitted by Energy Resources Co.,Inc. in fulfillment of BLM contract #AA550-CT6-51. This tape contains eleven files with different file types and therefore different reference numbers. A description of the files and a listing of the reference numbers is available. Documentaion describes methods of observation and instruments used, units in which measurements are taken, including analytical methods and laboratory procedures used to analyze data. |

| 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. Points of contact for this data set include: Contact info: Agency: ENERGY RESOURCES CO. INC.
