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

Underway measurements from ANT-XX/2 cruise (South Atlantic Ocean)
Note: N.B. There was lots of sea ice locally south of 56S, until early January. A substantial part of the data was collected below sea ice (no evidence of melting in salinity or roughly S = 34.2)
