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: Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from GYRE and ANTARES from 1995-04-01 to 1995-06-18 (NODC Accession 9500125)
Abstract: The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and Bathythermograph (XBT) data were collected as part of Texas Institutions Gulf Ecosystem Research (TIGER) project. Data was collected from Ship GYRE cruises 95G02 & 95G03 and R/V ANTARES cruise 95A03. The data was collected over a period spanning from April 1, 1995 and June 18, 1995. Data was submitted on two diskettes by Dr. Douglas C. Biggs, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX.

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.
