I suppose that an alert user would guess that must be the case! But if you would like to make a note that would be a good use of a non-standardised comment in () in the cell_methods. > Speaking of that, what are your thoughts on including > standard errors or standard deviations of the climatology values? I hadn't thought about it before so my opinion is definitely not authoritative, but for what it's worth I would suggest providing a standard_deviation, which can be identified by the cell_methods. This is a well-defined statistic from which a user could estimate a SE of the mean if they make an assumption about correlation, and the SD is a useful statistic in its own right.
