NetCDF Climate and Forecast (CF) Metadata Convention
|
The CF conventions for climate and forecast metadata are designed to promote the processing and sharing of files created with the netCDF API The conventions define metadata that provide a definitive description of what the data in each variable represents, and of the spatial and temporal properties of the data. This enables users of data from different sources to decide which quantities are comparable, and facilitates building applications with powerful extraction, regridding, and display capabilities. This wiki concentrates on the definition of new standard_names for air chemistry and aerosols. Based on general concepts for the construction of new standard_names]]* Proposed Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosol Names |

How the wiki works
- Every article page has an associated discussion page. Links to these pages are also provided above on this page.
- On top of each page a menu allows to move between article and discussion. In addition, the wiki keeps track and allows recalling all previous versions through the history-tab .
- Each article and discussion can be edited by any participant. To edit a page, click on "create account or log in" in the upper right corner. Practice editing in the Sandbox. do not use menu bar on the left hand side
