[sjnoone]

Hi Ed,
The units table has been edited to include 1016 dimensionless/unitless NULL NULL as per issue #26 . In addition, the agreed changes proposed by Kalev reference issue #25 have also been implemented on this branch.

After 48 hours can you please merge these changes into the main CMD OBS repository.

best

I have made some new minor edits to observed_variable.csv infilled missing fields for variable 111 fields: parameter_group domain sub_domain with humidity | atmospheric | upper air.

I have fixed non-ascii characters that made the CI fail. But it is still failing because of variables 139 and 140 (upper air wind speeds) were removed, and the CUON test uses them. I don't recall if removing these was decided at the end, was it? I don't see it in the issues.

see issue #18,19 and subsequent pull request #24 all agreed on CDM-OBS Governance call in April 2026. Redundancy Cleanup: IDs 139 and 140 are duplicates of IDs 104 and 105. Removing them prevents mapping errors and simplifies the table.

It is green now ; ) I mapped those variables in the CUON reader so the tests passes now.
