@fluidnumericsJoe This is where we're writing the paper for JOSS :) . I've put a first draft together, it would be great to have your review on it. No particular rush - @erikvansebille is on leave until the 31st now - but thought I would give you a heads up. Happy to discuss when we next meet. |

Looking through the section requirements for JOSS, the paper should also have a "State of the field" section. Maybe would be best if you write that @erikvansebille ? Happy to hear your thoughts too @fluidnumericsJoe of course. |

The md file looks good now! Do you know how/where I can find the rendered version of the paper? So I can also check what it looks like in pdf? |

| When working with output from a single circulation model, version 4 of Parcels assumes data (i.e., the field data and mesh data) is all contained in a single Xarray Dataset object that has appropriate metadata. | ||
| This required metadata includes certain CF-convention metadata, providing information about important variables/coordinates and their units, as well SGRID or UGRID metadata, providing grid geometry information for structured grid data and unstructured grid data respectively. |

Are there references for SGRID and UGRID? Perhaps this comment provides a way to do that? cf-convention/cf-convention.github.io#67 (comment)

For CF and UGRID, I think that would be good, AFAIK SGRID doesn't have a publication(?) just a website

I think you can cite websites in JOSS papers?
