Dear Russ

I think it's a good development for udunits to support logarithmic units.
In CF standard names, however, we have taken the approach of stating the
reference level as part of the definition of the quantity, possibly allowing
it to be specified alternatively in a scalar coordinate variable. Therefore
the units of the quantity can be simply given as dB, without reference level.

Best wishes

Jonathan
