the private MELODIES MONET readers are designated with prefix ``_mm``.

Support for additional models is also under developed.

Standard variables are required to be computed in each model reader for each capability including surface, aircraft, and satellite as specified in the table below.

.. list-table:: Required Variables for Model Readers
:widths: 10 30 30 30
:header-rows: 1

* - Capability
- | Variable Name
| in Code
- Description
- Additional Requirements
* - Surface
- | ``time``
| ``latitude``
| ``longitude``
- | Time in ``datetime64[ns]`` format
| Latitude in degrees
| Longitude in degrees
- | Provide only surface model data
| or if provide vertical model data,
| first level must be the level
| nearest to the surface.
| All gases are in ppb and
| all aerosols are in µg/m3.

Not sure if this is a "requirement", as you can get around magnitude differences, e.g., using MM config. But certainly it's usually easier if they are in these units.

I want to list it as a requirement, so that there is consistency in the tool. But of course, if people prefer not to do this, there will not be an error and you can fix it in the unit conversion step later.

I would also prefer "ppbv" if you agree.

Forks of the central repository should follow the same
branching conventions.

develop_aircraft
________________
The *develop_aircraft* branch is the place
for adding new features related to aircraft observations.

develop_satellite
_________________
The *develop_satellite* branch is intended
for adding support for reading and processing
satellite observations.
This includes both gridded satellite data products
and swath or geostationary disk data products.
Sub-branches are sometimes created off of *develop_satellite*,
such as *develop_satellite_swath*.

develop_testsuite
_________________
The *develop_testsuite* branch holds modules
under development for unit tests and regression tests.
