Dear Burkhardt

> atmosphere_mass_content_of_graupel
> units: kg m-2
> "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.

> atmosphere_mass_content_of_hail
> units: kg m-2

>
> mass_fraction_of_hail_in_air
> units: 1
> Mass fraction is used in the construction mass_fraction_of_X_in_Y, where X is a material constituent of Y. It means the ratio of the mass of X to the mass of Y (including X).
