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 FIXED PLATFORM and Other Platforms From Coastal Waters of California and Others from 19840131 to 19850701 (Accession No. - 8700197) |
| Abstract: | This accession contains four data sets. The data was submitted by Raytheon service company as part of the MMS/Central California Coastal Circulation Program. The platform used was the VEGA I. The temperature data were collected along the coastal waters of California from February 14, 1984 to July 1, 1985 and is available in C116 Bathythermograph XBT format. Pressure gauge data in files TV2918 and TV2931 for these stations has been processed into F017 format. The surface drifter data were collected from February 14, 1984 to January 19, 1985 and is available in F015 current meter components format. The salinity measurements were collected with an ODEC thermosalinograph and are available in F022 CTD Hi resolution format. |

| 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: RAYTHEON CO.
