Dear All,

The standard name table has been updated with the changes listed at the end of 
this message. (This was a relatively small update).

The current version of the table is now 34, dated 13 June 2016. The links on 
the CF website and list of standard name contributors have been updated 
accordingly; the standard name changes have also been published on the NERC 
vocabulary server.

The next update to standard names will take place on 19th July.

Best wishes,
Alison

1. New names

Proposed by Tuomas Karna:
specific_turbulent_kinetic_energy_dissipation_in_sea_water (W kg-1)
specific_turbulent_kinetic_energy_of_sea_water (m2 s-2)
turbulent_mixing_length_of_sea_water (m)

2. Modifications to definitions of existing names

Proposed by Lars Barring:
The definitions of both the following names were clarified to emphasise that 
only positive values of temperature deficit/excess are included in the 
integrals. Also, a sentence was added to state that the threshold temperature 
against which the deficit/excess is calculated should be provided in a scalar 
or size one coordinate variable with standard name air_temperature_threshold.
integral_of_air_temperature_deficit_wrt_time
integral_of_air_temperature_excess_wrt_time
