Hello Alison,
In September you informed us of some additions to the standard names
table. Checking the table, I see that these included
> sea_surface_wave_directional_variance_spectral_density
with units m2 s-1 rad-1
and
> sea_surface_wave_variance_spectral_density
with units m2 s-1
I believe that these should be m2 s rad-1 and m2 s, respectively.
Integrating the variance spectral density over frequency (units s-1)
should give a sea level variance (units m2).
Apologies for not noticing sooner.
Regards,
Richard
