Agree with the overall thread. Having well-documented examples in either sense
is a great step.
The examples on the NOAA site (sorry, imprecise reference without my computer
handy) showing how to structure and document different kinds of marine
observations might be a good start for such a

downwards. The sign convention of these fluxes is not specified .. CMIP uses
the convention that downwelling is positive down and
