Parameter latitude

Properties

Properties of the parameter latitude
Name latitude
Description Latitude is positive northward; its units of degree_north (or equivalent) indicate this explicitly. In a latitude-longitude system defined with respect to a rotated North Pole, the standard name of grid_latitude should be used instead of latitude. Grid latitude is positive in the grid-northward direction, but its units should be plain degree.
AMIP code (Library of AMIP Data Transmission Standards) latitude
GRIB code not specified
