Dear All,

There is a need to introduce quite a number of new standard names to
describe the output which will be produced by ocean biogeochemistry
models as part of the CMIP5 project. The attached spreadsheet lists the
proposed name, unit and a brief explanation for each model output
quantity. The list was coordinated by John Dunne and arises from lengthy
discussions within the ocean biogeochemistry community. Jonathan and I
have both spent time looking at these names and we have taken care to
ensure that they are as consistent as possible with existing names and
units. Comments on these names are now invited.

Best wishes,
Alison
