surface_geostrophic_sea_water_y_velocity
The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. A velocity is a vector quantity. "y" indicates a vector component along the grid y-axis, when this is not true latitude, positive with increasing y. "Geostrophic" indicates that geostrophic balance is assumed. surface_geostrophic_sea_water_y_velocity is the sum of a variable part, surface_geostrophic_sea_water_y_velocity_assuming_sea_level_for_geoid, and a constant part due to the stationary component of ocean circulation.There are no aliases for this term
