Dear CF board:

I would like to propose the following standard name:

Standard Name:   volcanic_ash_cloud_geopotential_height

Definition:Geopotential is the sum of the specific gravitational potential energy relative to the geoid and the specific centripetal potential energy. Geopotential height is the geopotential divided by the standard acceleration due to gravity. The ash cloud geopotential height represents the height of the top of the ash cloud.

Canonical Units:m


Sincerely,

Jonathan Wrotny
