Dear Alison,

thank you for summing up and suggesting solutions. That brought us a big
step closer to an agreement.

I'd like to comment on the new construction guideline you suggested:

> [surface] [component] standard_name [at surface] [in medium] [due to

> [surface] [component] [large-scale medium] standard_name [at surface]
> [in local medium] [due to process] [assuming condition]
>

Phrases like 'tendency_of', 'product_of' and 'square_of' are still
missing. You native speakers will easily find a term for these
calculation specification. These are placed in the front and might be
added in the revised construction guideline.

The chemistry part in the construction guideline:
Once it was suggested that the chemistry names could be supervised by
the chemistry people in the wiki Christiane set up. Was there any
decision made on this?
Besides, the 'expressed_as' phrase as (possible) part of standard names
for chemical species should be mentioned in the chemical part of the
construction guideline.

Best wishes,
Martina
