Description

@sloosvel

Variable sftlf from the dataset defined below has values ranging from 0-1:

    - {project: CORDEX, domain: EUR-11, dataset: ALADIN53, driver: CNRM-CERFACS-CNRM-CM5, ensemble: r1i1p1, institute: CNRM, rcm_version: v1}

Since the units are set to % and according to the tables, the actual values should range from 0-100:

variable_entry:    sftlf
!============
deflate: 1
deflate_level: 1
shuffle: 1
modeling_realm:    atmos

! Variable attributes:

standard_name:     land_area_fraction
units:             %
cell_measures:     area: areacella
long_name:         Land Area Fraction
comment:           For atmospheres with more than 1 mesh (e.g., staggered grids), report areas that apply to surface vertical fluxes of energy.

! Additional variable information:

dimensions:        longitude latitude
out_name:          sftlf
type:              real
valid_min:         0.0
valid_max:         100.0

A fix is needed to scale the values from 0-1 to 0-100
