Dear CF-Meta Mailinglist,
As mentioned in the previous e-mail I would like to propose further
nitrogen-related standard names and two corrections. The full
definitions are attached in the end of this e-mail and as csv file.
In the last CF standard name update the two names
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_nitrogen_due_to_dry_deposition
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_nitrogen_due_to_wet_deposition
were added.
I realized that I made a typo in the descriptions. "nitrage" needs to be
changed to "nitrate" in the description of both standard names.
Based on these two names, I propose the following new standard names:
( 1)
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_deposition
( 2)
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_reduced_nitrogen_due_to_deposition
( 3)
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_dry_deposition
( 4)
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_reduced_nitrogen_due_to_dry_deposition
( 5)
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_wet_deposition
( 6)
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_reduced_nitrogen_due_to_wet_deposition
( 7)
tendency_of_ocean_mole_content_of_reduced_nitrogen_due_to_deposition
( 8)
tendency_of_ocean_mole_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_deposition
( 9)
tendency_of_ocean_mole_content_of_reduced_nitrogen_due_to_dry_deposition
(10)
tendency_of_ocean_mole_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_dry_deposition
(11)
tendency_of_ocean_mole_content_of_reduced_nitrogen_due_to_wet_deposition
(12)
tendency_of_ocean_mole_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_wet_deposition
There exists already a variable called
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_noy_expressed_as_nitrogen_due_to_dry_deposition
which is similar to the proposed "oxidized_nitrogen" standard names.
However, "noy" commonly denotes gaseous species whereas
"oxidized_nitrogen" denotes gaseous and particulate species.
Reason for (1) to (6): For marine ecosystem modelling, reduced and
oxizied nitrogen compounds need to be distinguished. Atmospheric
deposition is one source for marine nitrogen compounds.
Reason for (7) to (12): Consistency. New names (1) to (6) are for the
output files of chemistry transport models, whereas (7) to (12) are for
input files of marine biogeochemical models.
Cheers,
Daniel

tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_oxidized_nitrogen_due_to_deposition
kg m-2 s-1
"Content" indicates a quantity per unit area. The "atmosphere content"
of a quantity refers to the vertical integral from the surface to the
top of the atmosphere. For the content between specified levels in the
atmosphere, standard names including "content_of_atmosphere_layer" are
used. "tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. The
specification of a physical process by the phrase "due_to_" process
means that the quantity named is a single term in a sum of terms which
together compose the general quantity named by omitting the phrase.
"Deposition" is the sum of wet and dry deposition. Usually, particle
bound and gaseous nitrogen compounds, such as nitrogen monoxide (NO),
nitrogen dioxide (NO2), dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5), nitric acid (HNO3),
nitrate (NO3-), peroxynitric acid (HNO4), bromine nitrate (BrONO2),
chlorine nitrate (ClONO2) and organic nitrates (most notably
peroxyacetyl nitrate, sometimes referred to as PAN, (CH3COO2NO2)), are
included. The list of individual species that are included in this
quantity can vary between models. Where possible, the data variable
should be accompanied by a complete description of the species
represented, for example, by using a comment attribute.
