Dear Gary In your new definition, the threshold is not stated, and I agree that it better in principle. However it would be informative to record the threshold used, I imagine. This could be done like this:
> The average radius of a central region of clouds in tropical > cyclones lacking well-defined eye features > which is computed by averaging the great circle distance in four > cardinal directions. The radius > in each direction is measured from the estimated storm center > position to a warm point that exceeds > a threshold temperature limit. The threshold applied should be recorded in a coordinate variable having the standard_name of air_temperature_threshold. It could be a scalar or a size-one coordinate variable.
