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 BLUE FIN and Other Platforms From North American Coastline-South from 19850328 to 19850522 (NODC Accession 8900150)
Abstract: These data are the results of the Spring Removal Experiment (SPREX)
collected from March 28, 1985 to May 22, 1985. Data consists of high
resolution CTD data, in shallow waters off coastal Georgia, with rosette
bottle (Niskin) collections at top and bottom. Samples were analyzed for
PO4, NO2, NO3, SI, Chl-A and phaeopigments. The CTD data were extracted
and processed into F-022 format (files nos. TV2989-TV2992). The data
were submitted by Dr. Larry P. Atkinson and Skidaway Institute of
Oceanography, Savannah GA.

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.
