Note from the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC):

The HDF-EOS data format download option in the subsetting service for Modern Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA/MERRA-2) data will be removed after May 31, 2020.

Sorry for our delay in replying. Was this MERRA-2 data or GLDAS/NLDAS data?

Hello. Thanks for using the Forum to inquire. Our Help Desk has received the query and we are evaluating the situation.

Hello,

Many of the data variables available at the GES DISC will have a scaling factor when plotted. In order for us to assist you, please indicate the data variable and application you are using.

There appear to have been changes in air quality parameters related to the pandemic and changes in economic and social activity. One article about this from our NASA data archive is available here: https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov/information/data-in-action?title=Satellite%20Observed%20Tropospheric%20NO2%...

You may use the NASA Giovanni system, https://giovanni.gsfc.nasa.gov/ , for many variables related to air quality, and use the system to specify your region of interest and time period of interest. Please utilize our Help documentation to assist you in getting started, and you may reply here for spe...

Hello,

Regarding your question, is it possible to install GDAL on your computing system?

Hello, You can obtain MERRA-2 data from the NASA GES DISC: https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov/datasets?page=1&source=Models%2FAnalyses%20MERRA-2 and from Giovanni, which allows easy regional selection: https://giovanni.gsfc.nasa.gov/giovanni/#service=TmAvMp&starttime=&endtime=&variableFacets...

As of April 16, 2020, the GLDAS-1 production stream has ended with the March 2020 data. The entire GLDAS-1 collection from January 1979 through March 2020 will remain available until it is decommissioned on June 30, 2020 and removed from the GES DISC system. With upgraded Land Surface Models (LSMs) ...

The link below will provide the hourly wind data variables that are available in Giovanni. There is no data product specific for 100 meters above the surface; several of the products are for a height of 10 meters above the surface. https://giovanni.gsfc.nasa.gov/giovanni/#service=TmAvMp&starttim...
