MERRA-2 can not download

by mc40591mc » Tue May 27, 2025 1:25 am America/New_York

I cannot download this dataset named 'MERRA-2 inst1_2d_asm_Nx: 2d,1-Hourly,Instantaneous,Single-Level,Assimilation,Single-Level Diagnostics V5.12.4 (M2I1NXASM)'. The download keeps stalling and takes over two hours without progress - the progress bar remains at 0%. Additionally, I want to download the mean value data, but there’s no option to select the mean value in the interface.

Hi dear user,

Thank you for sending the screenshot — we're glad to assist you.

Please try submitting your request using a shorter time range, such as one month at a time. The dataset you’re accessing (M2I1NXASM, 198 MB per day) is quite large, and requesting data for a full five-year period at once places a heavy load on our data services and thus our system might not respond properly.

We appreciate your understanding.

Best Regards,
NASA GES DISC MERRA-2 support team
