Variable types declared using Fortran code words. #18

The CMIP6 Data Request, as in previous requests, uses FORTRAN terminology to declare variable types (e.g. character, double, integer, real). This dates from earlier CMOR versions written in FORTRAN. It may be worth switching to something more pythonic ... or directly related to NetCDF requirements.
