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: Temperature and salinity measurements found in datasets XBT and CTD taken from the CHOFU MARU (Call sign JCCX) (Operation dates: 1987 to present), SEIFU MARU (Call Sign JIVB) (Operation dates: 1993 to present) and other platforms in the Coastal N Pacific, North Pacific and other locations in 2001 (NODC Accession 0000907)
Abstract: The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) has been carrying out oceanographic and marine meteorological observations on board research vessels, at the coastal water temperature observation stations and by ocean data buoys, for the purposes of the better understanding of dynamical processes of the oceanic general circulation affecting climate change, prevention and mitigation of natural disasters, and contributing to international cooperative activities. This Data Report contains the data obtained from the observations made by JMA in 2001 together with the explanations.
