Yes, my, copy, paste replace operation failed; thank you; I've updated
this.

I like this; I think it expresses the use of cell methods very nicely.
I wonder whether
''source measurement field (which may or may not be represented by an
existing field construct).''
could be replaced by:
'' the core concept defined by the standard_name, long_name and units of
the Field.''
making the description more self-contained, without losing the semantic
intent?
many thanks
