Dear all, I would like to suggest the addition of a new standard_name to describe land-sea masks. A standard_name already exists: land_binary_mask ( X_binary_mask has 1 where condition X is met, 0 elsewhere. 1 = land, 0 = sea.). But in the ocean modelling community, we have already existing files describing those masks, but from an "ocean point of view", so 1 is for sea and 0 is for land points. So I would like to request the addition of the standard_name "*sea_binary**_mask*", with definition "X_binary_mask has 1 where condition X is met, 0 elsewhere. 1 = sea, 0 = land" and unit "1".
Best regards, Elodie
