Hi Martina and Jonathan,
I wish to only comment on cell metrics that where already discussed
within the CF community, goto:
http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/pipermail/cf-metadata/2006/subject.html
and search for cell metrics
>area_of_gridbox
We agreed on 'cell_area' in previous discussions.
It seems to me that it is useful to define variables such as
>latitude_of_the_bounds
>longitude_of_the_bounds
just because people use them.
Best regards,
Christiane
