[netCDFJava #YHY-505756]: variable aggregation within a single dataset

Ghansham,

As near as I might suggest, your wave number axis would probably fall under the 
description of a "discrete axis."  There is a discussion in the most recent CF 
document here:

http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/documents/cf-conventions/1.6/cf-conventions.html#discrete-axis

Regards,
  Lansing
