Hello,
For working with data from biological models, I'd like to propose the following standard names:
molar_concentration_of_nitrogen_in_sea_water_due_to_diatoms (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_nitrogen_in_sea_water_due_to_phytoplankton (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_nitrogen_in_sea_water_due_to_mesozooplankton (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_nitrogen_in_sea_water_due_to_ microzooplankton(mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_nitrogen_in_sea_water_due_to_detritus (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_silicate_in_sea_water_due_to_detritus (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_ammonium_in_sea_water (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_nitrate_in_sea_water (mol m-3)
molar_concentration_of_silicate_in_sea_water (mol m-3)
The prefix "molar_concentration_of_X" is new, and I hope it is not too controversial. I could have used "moles_of_X_per_unit_volume_in_Y", but "molar_concentration_of_X_in_Y" seemed a bit more concise. Likewise "due_to_Z" where Z is not a verb is also new, and I hope it also seems reasonable.
Thank you for considering these additions
Sincerely,
Mike
