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: PRESSURE - WATER and Other Data from UNKNOWN From TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) from 19850101 to 19861231 (NODC Accession 8700222)
Abstract: This accession contains TOGA data from 1985 to 1986 from the French IGOSS
data center collected in the Tropical Pacific ocean. The data contains
temperature profiles (bathythermograph and TESAC data where salinity has
been deleted from TESAC), reported in GF3 format. The data was submitted
by Institut Francais de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la Mer
(IFREMER), Brest, France.

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.
