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 HEWITT from 1990-11-01 to 1990-11-06 (NCEI Accession 9000280)
Abstract: This dataset contains data submitted on a floppy disk. The six day cruise was conducted aboard USS Hewitt. The bathythermograph (XBT) data was collected between November 1, 1990 and November 6, 1990. The data were sent from the cruise ships to the Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center, Monterey CA, via radio messages. This data was submitted by Mr. Paul Stevens. On April 13, 2005 the data was offline so its current NODC format is not known.

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.
