Attribute description
precipitation_flux
Descriptor

In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
specific_humidity
Descriptor

"specific" means per unit mass. Specific humidity is the mass fraction of water vapor in (moist) air.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
surface_air_pressure
Descriptor

The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
air_temperature
Descriptor

Air temperature is the bulk temperature of the air, not the surface (skin) temperature. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled
