NEMO CF

Make NEMO output CF compliant

Purpose of this tool

Starting from standard NEMO / XIOS2 output, we aim at creating datasets that have the following properties:

1. no un-ambiguous names and labels,
2. every variable contains information about the attached coordinates,
3. every variable has a unit, a long name, if possible a standard name.

Note that 1. implies that coordinate names like nav_lon and nav_lat should be replaced by the respective glam? and gphi fields.

Materials

• NEMO book (pdf)
• CF conventions (v1.7)
• The UBC Salish Sea Model Project erddap server has lots of metadata suggestions.
