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: | Grain size analysis data collected by sediment corer and sediment grabber casts in the Chukchi sea from 1986-08-29 to 1987-10-07 (NCEI Accession 9500158) |
| Abstract: | Grain size analysis data were collected by using sediment corer and sediment grabber casts in the Chukchi Sea and NW Coast of Alaska by the Chukchi Sea. Data were collected and submitted by the University of Alaska in Fairbanks; Institute of Marine Science. Grain size analysis data include sediment properties, sediments - dry weight, and sediments - particle size fractions. Data were collected from 29 August 1986 to 07 October 1987. The format of these data files is designed to support studies of sediment type and characteristics in offshore and near shore areas that may be affected by outer continental shelf (OCS) activities such as contaminant discharge or alteration by physical, chemical or biological pressures. Bottom samples and other sediment collections may also be reported using this format. |

| 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.
