Giovanni System Maintenance for MERRA-2 Variables has Been Completed

Data Update
Issued
April 20, 2026
Resolved

GES DISC has completed the migration of the OPeNDAP service to Earthdata Cloud for 34 of the MERRA-2 data collections. Giovanni variables from those data collections are available once again. Please see the document OPeNDAP in the Cloud for more details about changes to the OPeNDAP service.
