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: | SEA HEIGHT and Other Data from FIXED STATIONS From Mediterranean Sea from 1981-09-01 to 1982-09-30 (NCEI Accession 9000011) |
| Abstract: | This data set describes the Medalpex Sea Level project which took place from September 1, 1981 to September 30, 1982. The main purpose of medalpex was to understand the effect of wind forcing on the dynamics of the western part of the mediterranean sea. Sea level data was submitted to the Marine Information and Advisory Service (MIAS) which is the UK's National Oceanographic Data Centre. There were 29 medalpex sites with contributions from Belgium, France, Monaco, Italy, Spain, Yugoslavia and the UK. The data is available in GF-3 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, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
