Weighted-mean by area for 1D land-compressed CF Field
Hi cf-python'ers
I am trying to do a global land-only area-weighted average with CF Python of a field that is a 1D land-only array (instead of 2D). I'm using a script that someone else made to get these in the right 1D format instead of the 1D format that JULES makes. But I get an error when I try to do this in CF Python. Can you advise me on this? See below.

On the CEDA Jasmin supercomputer, I do this:
module load jaspy
python ~pmcguire/cf1dland_v1.py ~pmcguire/for_andyh/JULES2013.nc #I'm attaching the other person's python code[cf1dland_v1.txt](https://github.com/NCAS-CMS/cf-python/files/14462867/cf1dland_v1.txt) on the GitHUB repository as well
cp -p converted.nc ~pmcguire/for_andyh/converted.nc
python
>>> import cf
>>> xx=cf.read('~pmcguire/for_andyh/converted.nc')
>>> xx[0]
<CF Field: long_name=Gridbox surface temperature(time(1), latitude(112), longitude(192)) K>
>>> print(xx[0])
Field: long_name=Gridbox surface temperature (ncvar%Ts)
-------------------------------------------------------
Data : long_name=Gridbox surface temperature(time(1), latitude(112), longitude(192)) K
Cell methods : time : mean
Dimension coords: time(1) = [2014-01-01 00:00:00] 365_day
: latitude(112) = [-55.625, ..., 83.125] degrees_north
: longitude(192) = [0.9375, ..., 359.0625] degrees_east
print(xx[0].collapse('mean',axes='area',measure='true').array)
[[[281.92977735622253]]] #this seems right for Kelvin, but it isn't area-weighted.
But when I try to do an area-weighted average, I get this error.
>>> print(xx[0].collapse('mean',axes='area',measure='true',weights='area').array)
