How to open this dataset in DeepESDL JupyterLab#

from xcube.core.store import new_data_store
store = new_data_store("s3", root="deep-esdl-public", storage_options=dict(anon=True))
# The cube is saved as a multilevel cube, the level 0 is the base layer with 
# the highest resolution
ml_dataset = store.open_data('ocean-1M-9km-1x1080x1080-1.4.0.levels')
# Chek how many levels are present
ml_dataset.num_levels
# Open dataset at a certain level, here level 0
ds = ml_dataset.get_dataset(0)
