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: Physical and underway data collected aboard the MELVILLE during cruise MGLN31MV in the Philippine Sea, South China Sea (Nan Hai) and Sulu Sea from 2008-01-09 to 2008-02-01 (NODC Accession 0098578)
Abstract: NODC accession 0098578 includes physical and underway data collected aboard the MELVILLE during cruise MGLN31MV in the Philippine Sea, South China Sea (Nan Hai) and Sulu Sea from 2008-01-09 to 2008-02-01. These data include CURRENT SPEED - EAST/WEST COMPONENT (U) and CURRENT SPEED - NORTH/SOUTH COMPONENT (V). The instruments used to collect these data include ADCP and GPS. These data were collected by Arnold Gordon of Columbia University; Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, and by SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY as part of Office of Naval Research (ONR) / Philippines Straits Dynamics Experiment (PhilEx). The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) submitted these data to NODC as part of the NSF sponsored Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program. The ADCP data represent the raw and automated processed data set. Post processed quality assessed data are not available in this accession.
