Hi Alison,
Just to clarify that I am in total agreement with this and had a bit of a senior moment in a previous message.
Cheers, Roy.

Hi Alison,
Yes, please use mol kg-1 as the canonical unit.
Thanks,

Dear All,
Thank you for the constructive discussion of this proposal - it seems that agreement has been reached on apparent_oxygen_utilisation with canonical units of mol kg-1. (Just to double check: is this the correct unit for use with the World Ocean Database, which I believe is the reason for requesting the name in the first place. Units of mol m-3 have also been mentioned in this discussion, but this could be a misunderstanding.
Best wishes,
Alison
