Dear Bruce, Heiko et al. > 1. Cloud Height Classification Based on Cloud Types
> low_type_cloud_area_fraction > medium_type_cloud_area_fraction > high_type_cloud_area_fraction I continue to think these are fine. They are names of cloud genera, as earlier discussed. I think the problem with names based on height ranges is that they are not well-defined, as you and Heiko say, so it would be necessary to include a coordinate to define the range. But if you do that, the low/medium/high is not needed, and in fact unhelpful because it is restrictive. You only need the one (existing) standard_name of cloud_area_fraction if you give a height range, and it should be possible to give a height range if the quantities come from analysis of numerical datasets.
