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: | Cloud amount/frequency, TRANSMISSIVITY and other data from GYRE in the Gulf of Mexico from 1992-09-26 to 1992-10-31 (NCEI Accession 9200302) |
| Abstract: | The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD); and Water Depth and Temperature Bathythermograph (XBT) data were collected in Gulf of Mexico as part of Texas Institutions Gulf Ecosystem Research (TIGER) project funded by grant no MMS # 14-35-0001-30501. Data was collected from Ship GYRE cruises 92G09, 92G10 and 92G13. The data was collected over a period spanning from September 26, 1992 to October 31, 1992. Data was submitted in two diskettes by Dr. Douglas C. Biggs, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX. The originator's data containing 32 CTD observations; 52 stations and 12,860 records has been processed. CTD data is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC. The originator's bathythermograph (XBT) data has been converted and are now available on line in C116 (XBT) file format of NODC. |

| 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.
