[netcdf-java] Detecting dimensional and dimensionless vertical coordinates

Hi all,

In a GridCoordSystem, is there a way of detecting whether the vertical
axis (assuming it exists) is dimensional or dimensionless (e.g.
sigma)?  I guess I could manually look for the long_name or
standard_name attribute, but is there a way that's built-in to
Java-NetCDF (I'm on version 4.0)?

Cheers, Jon
