NEMO standard names are mostly wrong

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I'd assumed that since NEMO XML had standard_names eg
<field field_ref="zotempac" name="zotempac" standard_name="zonal_mean_temperature_pacific" grid_ref="gznl_T_3D" >

that the standard name was correct -- not so -- a large part of NEMO standard names are not CF -- I am comparing against http://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-standard-names/78/build/cf-standard-name-table.html

Not sure how to proceed -- remove all non standard names?

It looks like they've simply taken the long name, lowered the case and added underscores to replace white space
