Hi again, more on the CASTNET data. They provide 15,WINDSPEED,m/sec,"Vector wind speed; m/sec.",NUMBER,"16,4", and 23,WINDSPEED_SCALAR,m/sec,"Scalar wind speed; m/sec.",NUMBER,"16,4",
The first appears to be a vector average = sqrt( mean(u)**2 + mean(v)**2 ) the second is = mean( sqrt(u**2 + v**2) ) Are both tied to "wind_speed" as standard_name and should they differ in the cell_method attribute?
