ICARE routinely generates aerosol products over ocean using a code developed by HYGEOS. A level-2 and a level-3 (Daily) Aerosol Optical Depth and Angstrom Exponent over Ocean are generated at the native spatial resolution (“Reduced Resolution” 1 km) and is available over the sensor lifespan (2002-2012). This product can be accessed through the Web Catalogue, the Web Archive Interface and the SFTP server under MERIS/MER_ALAMO and MERIS/MER_ALAMO_D3.
Dear AERIS/ICARE users,
A major electrical maintenance operation in the building that houses our infrastructure is scheduled for Tuesday, December 2, 2025, early in the morning, and is expected to last all day.
AERIS/ICARE services will therefore be shut down from Monday 16:00 and the systems should be turned back on Tuesday evening. However, in the worst case, this extinction could last until early Thursday 4 morning.
All services (web, ftp, ssh) will be affected during this shutdown period.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Best regards
The AERIS/ICARE Team
