Dear all,

I'd like to propose the following two standard names, which conform to
the existing pattens.They represent the tendency for the mass fraction
of cloud condensed water in GCMs. Their units are in 1/s.
We hope to use these variables in the Cloud Feedback Model
Intercomparison Project (CFMIP).

(1) tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_liquid_water_in_air_
    due_to_sedimentation

(2) tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_condensed_water_in_air_
    _due_to_sedimentation_of_cloud_liquid_water

The phrase '_of_cloud_liquid_water' is included in (2) in order to
distinguish it from the 'sedimentation_of_cloud_ice'.

Best wishes,

Tomoo
