The following cell methods are referenced in the WG1 priority variables:

Weighted Time Mean on Ice Sheet::area: time: mean where ice_sheet Daily Maximum::area: mean time: maximum within days time: mean over days Partial Mean over Ice-free sea::area: mean where ice_free_sea over sea time: mean Fixed Area Mean::area: mean Weighted Time Mean in over Snow and Ice covered Land::area: time: mean where snow (comment: mask=snc) Point-Instantaneous::area: point time: point Basin Zonal Mean on Model Grid::time: mean grid_longitude: mean Area Mean Instantaneous::area: mean time: point Fixed Area Sum::area: sum Time Mean over Land::area: mean where land time: mean Time Maximum::area: mean time: maximum Weighted Time Mean on Sea-ice::area: time: mean where sea_ice (comment: mask=siconc) Mean Diurnal Cycle::area: mean time: mean within days time: mean over days Annual Climatology::area: mean time: mean within years time: mean over years Snow Mass Weighted::area: mean where land time: mean (with samples weighted by snow mass) Time Mean::time: mean Instantaneous::time: point Area and Time Mean::area: time: mean Time Mean contribution from Land::area: mean where land over all_area_types time: mean Time Mean of Area Sum::area: sum where sea time: mean Area Mean over Sea::area: mean where sea Time Mean over Sea::area: mean where sea time: mean Basin Zig-Zag Zonal Sum::longitude: sum (comment: basin sum [along zig-zag grid path]) depth: sum time: mean Zonal Time Mean::longitude: mean time: mean Instantaneous over Sea::area: mean where sea time: point Temporal Minimum::area: mean time: minimum Fixed Area Mean::area: mean where land Weighted Time Mean on Landuse Tiles::area: time: mean where sector Instantaneous Mean over Land::area: mean where land time: point Daily Minimum::area: mean time: minimum within days time: mean over days

Relevant area types are and associated variables:

Two of the area types for the sweLut variable are not included explicitly. They could be covered by the vegtype variable ... but will probably need additional documentation from modellers.
