Dear All,

During an exercise with Alison mapping the CF Standard Names to a units 
vocabulary in the BODC vocabulary server I noticed that the units for salinity 
were '1.00E-03', i.e. parts per thousand.  My understanding in that since the 
introduction of the Practical Salinity Scale that salinity is dimensionless 
with units of '1'.  Is there agreement for our changing the units in the 
Standard Name table?

Cheers, Roy.
