`Entry` elements may optionally also contain the following elements:

<amip>AMIP identifier string</amip>

Not all variables have equivalent AMIP or GRIB codes.
ECMWF GRIB codes start with **`E`**, NCEP codes with **`N`**.
Standard codes (in the range 1-127) are not prefaced.
When a variable has more than one equivalent GRIB code, the alternatives are given as a blank-separated list.

The **`alias`** elements do not contain definitions.
Rather they contain the value of the **`id`** attribute of an **`entry`** element that contains the sought after definition.
The purpose of the **`alias`** elements are to provide a means for maintaining the table in a backwards compatible fashion.
