Description : A velocity is a vector quantity. "y" indicates a vector component along the grid y-axis, positive with increasing y. "Land ice" means glaciers, ice-caps and ice-sheets resting on bedrock and also includes ice-shelves. The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere.'
