Algae Dataset
Every data hub, dataset, sensor, variable, paper and limitation in one tree — and for each: where it comes from, how far back it goes, how often it captures, why it belongs in a cholera study, and why it does not work everywhere.

Why it is used for cholera.
Same underlying OC-CCI product
Why not — catalogue limitation. The CDS queue can be slow. ERDDAP (AL01) is faster for small site-level subsets.
