download CALIPSO Lidar Level 3 Tropospheric Aerosol Profiles

[yaoningning]

hello
I would like to use the file inside CALIPSO Lidar Level 3 Tropospheric Aerosol Profiles, All Sky Data, Standard V4-20, specifically ASDC / Data / CALIPSO / LID_L3_Tropospheric_APro_ AllSky-Standard-V4-20, there are a series of global month files, such as CAL_LID_L3_Tropospheric_APro_AllSky-Standard-V4-20.2020-01D.hdf,CAL_LID_L3_Tropospheric_APro_AllSky-Standard-V4-20.2020-01N.hdf,CAL_LID_L3_Tropospheric_APro_AllSky-Standard-V4-20.2020-02D.hdf and ect.,and just select the daytime data. Can I download the data from this series of files by specifying the region and time period, such as specifying the region from 160 to 120 degrees west longitude and 40 to 60 degrees north latitude, and specifying the time period from 2006 to 2020 for the data of January every year? If there is a script to automatically download without manual download would be good! My final goal is to draw the annual time series of January for a variable AOD_Mean_Dust in the above specified region file.
Thank you very much!
