NSIDC would like to announce a change to data access for the “Near-Real-Time SSM/I-SSMIS EASE-Grid Daily Global Ice Concentration and Snow Extent, Version 4 (NISE)” data set. Data access through our primary portal will remain the same at ftp://n5eil01u.ecs.nsidc.org/SAN/OTHR/NISE.004. The secondary access point at ftp:/ /nise @sidads.colorado.edu has been removed. Please update any bookmarks you may have to the secondary access point to link to the primary one. We expect that this will only affect a small number of data users.
