Dear Olivier
> ocean mean dynamic topography.
Do you mean a time-mean? If so, this can be described by cell_methods as well,
by including "TIME: mean", where TIME is the name of the time dimension.

I think we will need to be careful about what "eddy" means. Can you clarify
what you imply by "eddy"?

These "where" quantities would be unnecessary in my proposal
http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/trac/ticket/17
because the "where" part would be included in cell_methods.
