1.8 CF Standard Names: Upward Transformed Eulerian Mean Air Velocity (upward_transformed_eulerian_mean_air_velocity)

Record Label : upward_transformed_eulerian_mean_air_velocity

Record Title : Upward Transformed Eulerian Mean Air Velocity

CF Standard Name : upward_transformed_eulerian_mean_air_velocity

Record Description : A velocity is a vector quantity. "Upward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed upward (negative downward). Upward air velocity is the vertical component of the 3D air velocity vector. The "Transformed Eulerian Mean" refers to a formulation of the mean equations which incorporates some eddy terms into the definition of the mean, described in Andrews et al (1987): Middle Atmospheric Dynamics.
