The following table list several data sets. By clicking on the appropriate command, you can (1) make plots, (2) FTP the files to your computer -- slice, dice and subset large files or (3) obtain documentation or (4) use the DODS(OPeN-DAP)/GDS server to get data values directly from our matrix of holdings. At this time, some options are not available.
Nomad3 is running the "development" version of the plotting package.

Definitions and Links
Some users apparently don't understand computers. Certain users have overloaded
the computer by making a hundred requests at one time. Our software sees
that a hundred jobs are running rejects all hundred requests. The user's software
sees that all the requests were rejected instantly sends off another hundered
requests. His hundred requests come faster than the web server can remove
the old jobs and the system eventually crashes. As a bandaid, a 10 second delay was
added to the "reject" message. Consequently we only had to reject a 100 requests
every 10 seconds. The system didn't crash but the a few users were making the
system difficult to use for everybody else.
After many attempts of trying to tune the application software, a different tack
was taken. Not nice people had their IP addresses turned off by the firewall for
upto five minute at a time. Reasons to get rejected are,
The limits are per IP address and the limits will decrease when the
machine gets too busy. Have noticed some attempts to get
around the limits by using multiple IP addresses. Not a good idea.
