1.8 CF Standard Names: Magnitude of Derivative of Position Wrt X Coordinate Index (magnitude_of_derivative_of_position_wrt_x_coordinate_index)

Record Label : magnitude_of_derivative_of_position_wrt_x_coordinate_index

Record Title : Magnitude of Derivative of Position Wrt X Coordinate Index

CF Standard Name : magnitude_of_derivative_of_position_wrt_x_coordinate_index

Record Description : The quantity with standard name magnitude_of_derivative_of_position_wrt_x_coordinate_index (known in differential geometry as a "scale factor") is | (dr/di)jk|, where r(i,j,k) is the vector 3D position of the point with coordinate indices (i,j,k). It is a measure of the gridblock spacing in the x-direction.

Canonical Units : m
