Dear Philip,
Thank you for your reply. In the meantime, I indeed found the variable
you propose. Dobson Unit would be much more convenient instead of m, as
it is much more used in the scientific community.
Best regards

Hello Ben
I have put an example section at the bottom of the wiki page

I think you are right that including examples helps to illustrate the
conversation, I hope I have done so here.
In particular, I have noted:
Dear Christophe,
Thinking ahead, I tried to put dobson into cf-python's CF Udunits data
base, but couldn't since it was already there (at Udunits version
2.1.24):
unit
def446.2 micromoles/meter^2/def

Dear All,
Those interested in developing the semantics of Standard Names might like to
know about the following work.
I've directed Michael at how to join this list.
Cheers, Roy.

Dear David,
Thanks for the update. The Dobson Unit is also commonly defined as (from
Wikipedia):
One Dobson unit refers to a layer of gas that would be 10 µm thick
under standard temperature and pressure

Hi Jonathan:
The range for the data variable is not error/uncertainty.
Rather, the data variable is one of a set of data variables needed to define
the current environmental conditions at a location.
The specific data variable is an energy band with an upper and lower limit

In https://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/trac/wiki/PotentialDataModelTypes I have added a
description of the constructs/types of the proposed CF data model of ticket 68
https://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/trac/ticket/68. Many of your examples apply, and I
have noted where they don't correspond exactly.

Dear Randy
a possibility would be new modifiers to indicate the lower and upper bounds.
(I think you are suggesting using the existing ancillary variable convention
construct).
I don't think they'd be ancillary variables, because there isn't a main
variable to hang them from, as you say
Hi All,
The problem as I see it, is that the two versions of Dobson Unit are
effectively equivalent via the ideal gas law. Hence, I see Dobson unit get
defined both ways, and since DU is used as the unit the difference is hidden
and irrelevant, except for CF because we insist on connecting it
