# cf.AuxiliaryCoordinate.Y

`AuxiliaryCoordinate.``Y`

  True if and only if the coordinates are for a CF Y axis.

  CF Y axis coordinates are for a horizontal axis and have one or more of the following:

  > - The `axis` property has the value `'Y'`
  > - Units of latitude (see `cf.Units.islatitude` for details)
  > - The `standard_name` property is one of `'latitude'`, `'projection_y_coordinate'` or `'grid_latitude'`

      >>> c.Units
      <CF Units: degree_north>
      >>> c.Y
      True

      >>> c.standard_name == 'latitude'
      >>> c.Y
      True
