I've noticed the mapping between standard_name and variable name isn't 1-to-1 for some IPSL data in the BADC Gateway. This may be a Gateway configuration error or it might be a standard_name issue. Details below:
The dataset "cmip5.output1.IPSL.IPSL-CM5A-LR.historical.mon.land.Lmon.r4i1p1" has 49 variables but only 18 show up on the faceted search. If I investigate the Gateway database I see that :
* 10 variables are given the standard name "area_fraction":
cropFrac c4PftFrac residualFrac grassFrac landCoverFrac treeFracPrimEver treeFracPrimDec treeFrac baresoilFrac c3PftFrac
* 22 variables don't have a standard_name:
fLuc, fLitterSoil, nppWood, nep, cSoilMedium, nppLeaf, fHarvest, rGrowth, nppRoot, cLitterBelow, nbp, cSoilSlow, cRoot, cSoilFast, cLeaf, prveg, cWood, rMaint, cLitterAbove, fFire, cMisc, cProduct
Is this how it should be?
Thanks,
Stephen.
