Research direction
Start by inspecting the package entry point and packaging metadata to see how GFDL's version is currently defined. Expose that version through the imported gfdl module and verify that importing gfdl.version returns the package version.

Description
It is fairly standard to provide __version__ for a library/package, but we currently do not. Version handling for libraries/packing can actually be a little tricky sometimes. Nonetheless, it would probably make sense to do. I noticed this recently (today) while working on some numerical experiments:
>>> import gfdl
>>> gfdl.__version__
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<python-input-1>", line 1, in <module>
gfdl.__version__
AttributeError: module 'gfdl' has no attribute '__version__'
>>> import scipy
>>> scipy.__version__
'1.17.1'
>>> import sklearn
>>> sklearn.__version__
'1.8.0'
