Dear all, Just as for a local measurement of liquid water content, I would need a standard name for a local measurement of effective radius of cloud droplets. Given the existing names and the construction rules, I would go for : effective_radius_of_cloud_liquid_water_particle_in_air.

Dear All, On Tuesday 7th December I am planning an update of the standard name table in which I will be adding only a few of the changes that have been agreed in recent weeks. Apologies for not giving the usual seven days notice, but this 'mini' update is being done mainly for the purposes of test
