Makes sense to me. Now if only "_anomaly" were a standard extension to
standard names, you'd be all set!

Hi,
In the MyOcean european project, we are using
sea_surface_height_above_sea_level for the insitu data mesured by tide
gauges.
By substracting these measures and the predicted tide sea level, we
calculate the residual due to atmospheric (pressure and wind) conditions.
Is there an existing standard name for the residual ?
Should we consider that the predicted tide sea level is a sort of
climatology and therefore use
"sea_surface_height_above_sea_level__anomaly_" for the residual ?
Thanks for your help
