I am trying to open MODIS data without dowlanding them.
Try to use two approach but both are not working
Is it possible to use this data in cloud?

1) Error
netcdf_file ='https://obdaac-tea.earthdatacloud.nasa.gov/ob-cumulus-prod-public/AQUA_MODIS.20240426T125000.L2.OC.nc'
xrds = xr.open_dataset(netcdf_file)
xrds

2) Empty file with mata data
auth = earthaccess.login()
data_links is a list of links after search data_links.append ({"links": i.data_links(), "size (MB):": i.size()})

fs = earthaccess.open([data_links[5]])[0]
xrds = xr.open_dataset(fs, engine='h5netcdf', decode_cf=True)
print(xrds)

Currently the data need to be downloaded before you can use it in applications. OPeNDAP is not yet supported in the cloud for OB.DAAC datasets but we will eventually offer DMR++ files to enable users to work on OPeNDAP servers.
