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 TEMPERATURE and Other Data from ATLANTIS II From NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) from 19890401 to 19890731 (NODC Accession 9200023)
Abstract: The accession contains all of the observations made on the bottle casts during the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS)/ North Atlantic Bloom Experiment as part of North Atlantic Bloom Survey (NABS) from ship ATLANTIS II cruise 119 legs 4 & 5, April - July 1989 in NE Atlantic (limit-40 W). The data consists of three data files: 1. NABE NUTS.DAT contains pressure, depth, temperature, salinity, sigma-t, oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, phospate, silicate, organic carbon, nitrogen, alakalinity, carbon dioxide and partial pressure of carbon dioxide data. 2. NABE PIG.DAT contains chlorophyll-a, perdinin, carotene and fucoxanthin and derivatives data. 3. NABE BIO.DAT contains silicates, flagellates, plankton, bacteria and others data. The documentation includes the record format and a hardcopy description of methods and materials from the data contributors. The data was submitted in a diskette by Peter G. Brewer of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA.

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.
