I am having the same access error when trying to access https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/centers/ob-daac or any ocean color data download site.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Hi. I still can not access the MODIS L3m data at all.
All the links lead to the same webpage:
Update: OBPG Data Processing is Resuming OBPG Server Outage: Data Processing and Web Tools Affected

and it is a dead end.
