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: Temperature, salinity, and sigma-t profiles from CTD casts from the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas from the OCEANOGRAPHER and other platforms as part of the Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) the and Fisheries-Oceanography Cooperative Investigations (FOCI) from 04 September 1981 to 16 September 1987 (NODC Accession 9900072)
Abstract: Temperature, salinity, and sigma-t profiles were collected from CTD casts in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas from the OCEANOGRAPHER and other platforms from 04 September 1981 to 16 September 1987. Data were collected by the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) as part of Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) and the Fisheries-Oceanography Cooperative Investigations (FOCI).

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.
