Thanks Steve,

  I had already been there, the wikipedia page is much clearer to read.  :)

  At best I would say it is "g/m^3" from those XML files, but
standard_names is using "g m-3".  So things are not clear to me.

 It would be nice if there was a best practices or something somewhere.  Is
/ or space preferred for 'per'.  What is preferred raising to a power (m3,
m^3, or m-3).

Chris
