Dear Rosalyn,
thanks so much for your reply and your works that is so important for
me. Infact "my" data are produced within MYOCEAN (european) project
and thay are going to test them! so it is important they do not failed
the CF checker test.

Best regards.

cristina

p.s.
Sorry if sometime I miss some e-mails and I didin't answer to them.
This is a very caotic working time....and I'm receiving so many e-mails.

Thanks to all the cf-metadata group to their help!
