Area Fractions with specific standard terms vs. generic #36

Open martinjuckes opened 5 years ago

martinjuckes commented 5 years ago

Most area fractions use standard name area_fraction, but there are several exceptions such as sea_area_fraction.

Need to work out a clear way of dealing with this in the information model. i.e. the fact the sea_area_fraction is an area_fraction qualified by an area_type from the CF list.
