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: | NODC Standard Product: Texas-Louisiana Shelf Circulation and Transport Processes Study: Current Meter, Meteorological Buoy, XBT/XSV/XCP/CTD/IES (NODC Accession 9700319) |
| Abstract: | This package contains current direction/velocity, water temperature, air temperature, salinity, and other data which were collected using current meter, CTD casts, inverted echo sounder (IES), expendable bathythermograph (XBT), expendable sound velocity profiler (XSV) and other instruments from R/V GYRE, ERICA TIDE, SEIS SURVEYOR, AND UNIVERSAL SURVEYOR in the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico. Data were collected from April 19, 1992 to December 6, 1994. Data were submitted by the University of Texas A&M as part of the Louisiana-Texas Shelf Physical Oceanography Program (LATEX) project. The LATEX project was sponsored by the Minerals Management Service (MMS) of the U.S. Department of the Interior. Software that was developed or provided with this NODC Standard Product may be included in the disc_image/ directory as part of the disc image, but all software that was developed or provided with this NODC Standard Product has been excluded from the disc_contents/ directory. |

| Supplementary information: | The contents of these discs are available as 1) a compressed .tar file via the download data button (download size limit may prevent obtaining all data in one transaction); 2) a complete ISO 9660 disc image, from which an identical replica of the original disc may be burned on new CD/DVD media, by navigating to the .iso file in the data/0-data/disc_image/NODC-CD-088; 3) individual files, by navigating to specific file(s) in the data/0-data/disc_contents/NODC-CD-088. In this accession, NODC has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number. |
