A KWIC index for version 68 has been added to the CF website - these will now be generated routinely as part of the standard name updates. The changes are listed at the end of this message.
Cathy Smith has been added to the list of standard name contributors: http://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-standard-names/docs/standard-name-contributors.html. Apologies for the delay in getting this version onto the website - this is due to my switching to a new work laptop and taking a few days to get organised again. The next update to standard names is planned for 14th October. Best wishes, Alison --- V68 standard name changes 1. New names a.
