Dear CF Board,

I would like to propose a new standard name, dvorak_tropical_number.

Units: Dimensionless

Definition:

"dvorak_tropical_number" means the tropical number derived using the
Advanced Dvorak Technique based on
satellite observations, which has been empirically related to maximum
sustained 1-minute wind speed and mean
sea level atmospheric pressure.

Sincerely,

Gary
