1.8 CF Standard Names: Kinetic Energy Content of Atmosphere Layer (kinetic_energy_content_of_atmosphere_layer)

Record Label : kinetic_energy_content_of_atmosphere_layer

Record Title : Kinetic Energy Content of Atmosphere Layer

CF Standard Name : kinetic_energy_content_of_atmosphere_layer

Record Description : "Content" indicates a quantity per unit area. "Layer" means any layer with upper and lower boundaries that have constant values in some vertical coordinate. There must be a vertical coordinate variable indicating the extent of the layer(s). If the layers are model layers, the vertical coordinate can be model_level_number, but it is recommended to specify a physical coordinate (in a scalar or auxiliary coordinate variable) as well.
