[jira] [Created] (CLIMATE-615) Change Bias-related metric names

Michael Joyce created CLIMATE-615:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Change Bias-related metric names
                 Key: CLIMATE-615
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLIMATE-615
             Project: Apache Open Climate Workbench
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation, metrics
    Affects Versions: 0.5
            Reporter: Michael Joyce
            Assignee: Paul Ramirez
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.0.0


Per [~ploikith], the current Bias metric names aren't the most intuitive. At the moment we have:

Bias - Calculates bias at each time step. Not terribly useful functionality from an evaluation perspective.
TemporalMeanBias - Averages bias over each time step. AKA, what a climate scientist actually expects "Bias" to mean.
SpatialMeanOfTemporalMeanBias - While not an inaccurate name, it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue.

I will attach a list of changes that possible naming convention changes will affect.
