It looks like the portal has changed. I could not use your URL, but needed to switch to this one instead: https://ceres-tool.larc.nasa.gov/ord-tool/jsp/SYN1degEd41Selection.jsp

The new interface does not provide "Compute TOA Fluxes" or "Computed Surface Fluxes", but rather "Observed / Initial / Adjusted". I assume "Computed" --> "Adjusted".

@rbeucher could you give advice on which ones to download (see my suggestion below in screenshots)?
