Dear All:

I am proposing the following?

standard_name:
brightness_temperature_at_cloud_top

definition:
cloud_top refers to the top of the highest cloud. brightness_temperature of a body is the temperature of a black body which radiates the same power per unit solid angle per unit area. A coordinate variable of radiation_wavelength, sensor_band_central_radiation_wavelength, or radiation_frequency may be specified to indicate that the brightness temperature applies at specific wavelengths or frequencies.

canonical units:

K


very respectfully,

randy
