Standard name for wind #7

Closed kthyng closed 2 years ago

kthyng commented 2 years ago

A question came up at a meeting: see if there is a standard name for wind at the surface or at 10m

I don't see any wind name option that specifies surface vs. 10m: https://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-standard-names/77/build/cf-standard-name-table.html

So, unless I hear otherwise, I will stick with "eastward_wind" and "northward_wind"

Thanks -- I took a quick look and didn't find anything either -- I'm surprised given the number of specif names in CF, but that's what there is.
