Dear Jonathan,
I just had a short side-discussion with Eizi, and we settled on 'type',
i.e. we propose the standard names:
high_type_cloud_area_fraction
middle_type_cloud_area_fraction
low_type_cloud_area_fraction
As explanatory text, the one of cloud_area_fraction is a good start, and
then an addition like:
high type clouds are: Cirrus, Cirrostratus, Cirrocumulus
middle type clouds are: Altostratus, Altocumulus, Nimbostratus
low type clouds are: Stratus, Stratocumulus, Cumulus, Cumulonimbus
Best regards,
Heiko

Dear Eizi and Heiko
I think this kind of idea is good
high_genera_cloud_area_fraction:
etc.
"type" or "genera" would both be OK, but "genera" is a plural so better English
would probably be "type" (or "genus").
Cheers
Jonathan
