Expected update frequency for MODIS Terra/Aqua OceanData final science products

Hello,

We would like to check the expected update frequency or latency for the final science-quality MODIS Terra and Aqua OceanData (not NRT).

Currently, the latest available final data we see is from November 30, 2025. Could you please clarify what the typical release schedule or latency is for these final datasets?

ex: Terra RRS Dataset - https://search.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/granules?p=C3384237665-OB_CLOUD&pg[0][v]=f&pg[0][gsk]=-start_date&q=C3384237665-OB_CLOUD

Thank you.

Terra refined hasn't been created after November 2025 since it was waiting for a reprocessing. Aqua is out to Jun 1 2026, if Aqua data could fill the gap you are trying to satisfy.

I will see if we can get an outlook on an expected timeframe for the Terra reprocessing.
