Where are those missing O3 files ?

by wang2579 » Fri Mar 11, 2022 11:46 am America/New_York

Found many 1997/1998 O3 files are missing from DAAC Ancillary File Archive:
https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov (/directaccess/Ancillary/Meteorological/1997/339-346)
https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov (/directaccess/Ancillary/Meteorological/1998/347-365)

However, checked SeaWiFS L2 file meta data (1997 Day 341):
:ozone1 = "/data4/sdpsoper/vdc/vpu7/workbuf/S19973412134221_TOVS.OZONE" ;
:ozone2 = "/data4/sdpsoper/vdc/vpu7/workbuf/S19973422134321_TOVS.OZONE" ;
:ozone3 = "/data4/sdpsoper/vdc/vpu7/workbuf/S19973422134321_TOVS.OZONE" ;

Same day O3 data once existed on disk at the processing time.

I am wondering where are these O3 files now ? Can we recover them back on disk ?

Many thanks for help !
