Workspace Variable wind_v_field

Horizontal 1D, 2D or 3D wind components.

This wind component is defined differently for the atmospheric
dimensionalities.

 1D: Complete vertical wind. The wind is treated to always be aligned
azimuthally with the observation direction. That is, the vertical
winds converge/start at geographical position of the sensor. A wind
going away from the sensor is treated as positive.

 2D: Complete vertical wind. The wind is treated to be aligned with
the 2D cross-section the atmosphere represents. Air moving towards
higher latitudes is considered as a positive wind.

 3D: The north-south wind component. Air moving towards higher
latitudes is a positive wind.

Can be set to be empty, which is interpreted as zero wind speed
everywhere.

Unit:       m/s

Dimensions: [ p_grid, lat_grid, lon_grid ] or [ 0 0 0 ]
