Hi Kyle, we're trying to use quite strictly H.4.1 here, with one addition: Since all trajectories have the same timesteps we use 'time'='obs' and we don't have a special obs dimension. According to CF, this is allowed: (Chapter H.4.1: "If the trajectories all have the same set of times, the time auxiliary coordinate variable could be one-dimensional time(obs), or replaced by a one-dimensional coordinate variable time(time), where the size of the time dimension is now equal to the number of elements of each trajectory. In the latter case, listing the time coordinate variable in the coordinates attribute is optional.")
