I agree. > perhaps clearer as > > climatology_bounds="2007-12-1", "2008-3-1"; Could be, but of course that's not the same thing. The original example does illustrate the point that climatological days do not have to start at 0:00. > 2) flip order of 7.11 and 7.12, since 7.12 refers to 7.10. Yes, that would be better. > 3) 7.12 Temperature for each hour of the typical climatological day > > temperature:cell_methods="time: mean within days ", > "time: mean over days time: mean over years"; > > may be confused with array of strings, perhaps should be: > > temperature:cell_methods="time: mean within days time: mean over > days time: mean over years"; Can you have a multidimensional character array as an attribute anyway? I find that if I process the example with ncgen and ncdump I get back a single string, as in your revised version. I think they must be equivalent. I would have to search the emails, but I feel certain that we agreed that the threshold would be specified as a coord var (scalar in this case) for statistics like this. In the definition of the relevant standard_names it actually says this is a requirement. Does this present a problem?
