Dear CF-metadata,

I would like to propose a new standard_name to complement upward_air_velocity. upward_air_velocity uses positive values to indicate upward direction, but we have many instrument that use a convention of positive values to indicate downward direction. Can we clone upward_air_velocity to downward_air_velocity with the sign convention reversed?

Thanks,

Ken
