CF,

Can we add downward_air_velocity to be the counter to the existing upward_air_velocity.

Definition = A velocity is a vector quantity. ?Downward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). Downward air velocity is the vertical component of the 3D air velocity vector.

Thanks,

Ken
