Hi All -
The term realization is, apparently, *perfectly* clear to you
modelers, but it conveys no information at all to me.
Since it looks like it's going to be adopted, I hope you'll provide
a really clear definition in the standard - something that even an
oceanographer will understand.
Thanks!

Dear all
"realization" is fine as a standard name. I had forgotten we had
introduced it.
I withdraw my suggestion of ensemble_member_identifier.
Thus, the standard name (of realization) can be used to identify an
ensemble
axis. I think that providing an axis attribute as well could be
helpful: with
spatiotemporal axes we have both methods of identification, and it is
possible
there might be ensemble axes in which realization was a not a good
choice of
standard name.
