Dear Pepe
You should add a size-one coordinate variable or a scalar coordinate variable
of radiation_wavelength.
float kd490(wavelength);
kd490:standard_name =
"volume_attenuation_coefficient_of_downwelling_radiative_flux_in_sea_water";
kd490:long_name = "Mean Diffuse Attenuation Coefficient at 490nm" ;
kd490:units = "m-1" ;
float wavelength(wavelength);
wavelength:units="m";
wavelength:standard_name="radiation_wavelength";
or
float kd490;
kd490:standard_name =
"volume_attenuation_coefficient_of_downwelling_radiative_flux_in_sea_water";
kd490:long_name = "Mean Diffuse Attenuation Coefficient at 490nm" ;
kd490:units = "m-1" ;
kd490:coordinates="wavelength";
float wavelength;
wavelength:units="m";
wavelength:standard_name="radiation_wavelength";
Best wishes
Jonathan
