Dear @JonathanGregory,

Thanks for spotting this. It is not stated that this is, as you say, a 
generalization. The notion of "global attributes" is still used in relation to 
the `featureType` attribute.

Does this improve things?

"The properties of the field construct correspond to some netCDF attributes of 
variables (e.g. the `units`, `long_name`, and `standard_name`), and some netCDF 
group attributes, including (e.g. `history` and `institution`"

_NEW_  
"The properties of the field construct correspond to some netCDF attributes of 
variables (e.g. the `units`, `long_name`, and `standard_name`)**;** and some 
netCDF group attributes, **which include global attributes in the root group, 
such as `history` and `institution`.**"
