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: Hourly sea level measurements from FIXED STATIONS from TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) and others from 19070403 to 19940430 (NODC Accession 9400119)
Abstract: Hourly Sea Level measurements collected by various countries / institutions worldwide from stations in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans between 1907 to 1994. The majority of the stations were in the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere region: TOGA Area - Atlantic, TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S). These data are part of the annual submission of worldwide sea level data from the Joint Archive for Sea Level (JASL), which is a collaborative effort between NODC and the University of Hawaii. Data were quality controlled, documented, and placed in standard format. Additional data files representing daily and monthly values have also been filed under this NODC accession number. Data was submitted by Pat Caldwell of University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu, HI.

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, the NODC reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
