Q.  Where can I find the AMSU-A (Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit on Aqua)
and HSB(Humidity Sounder for Brazil) data?  

A.  Thank you for your interest in the AIRS Data Products. They are all
available for free from the GES DISC.

HSB died on Feb 4, 2003 and so there are no HSB radiance products
after that date.

Data may be downloaded via FTP or through a web page. URLs to the
documentation and data download option pages are:
