Dear Dirk, Thank you to you and Bruno for looking at these definitions again. I willl make the changes you have requested.
All three names are now accepted for publication in the standard name table and will be added in the 2nd July update. I am pleased to say that we have now agreed all the names requested for SIMIP. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the discussion. Best wishes, Alison. ________________________________ From: Dirk Notz <dirk.n...@mpimet.mpg.de> Sent: 23 June 2018 08:25:19 To: Pamment, Alison (STFC,RAL,RALSP); CF-metadata (cf-metadata@cgd.ucar.edu) Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] SIMIP: 5 standard names and one area type for CMIP6 Dear Alison, after discussions with Bruno Tremblay, we only have some minor comments on your suggested definitions: > 1. sea_ice_horizontal_shear_strain_rate_maximum_over_coordinate_rotation > (s-1) > Stress is the symmetric component of the tensor representing the > gradient of internal forces (e.g. in ice). Shear stress refers to > off-diagonal element(s) of the stress tensor (a single element for > horizontal shear stress). "Horizontal" refers to the local horizontal > in the location of the sea ice, i.e., perpendicular to the local gravity > vector. Each of the stress components is defined with respect to a frame > of reference. "Coordinate rotation" refers to the range of all possible > orientations of the frame of reference. The shear stress has a maximum > value relative to one of these orientations. The maximum over coordinate > rotations of the shear strain rate, often referred to as the maximum > shear strain [rate], represents the second invariant of strain rate. - It should be "strain rate" instead of "stress" everywhere. - "Stress is the symmetric component of the tensor..." should read "Axial strain is the symmetric component of the tensor..." > > 2. sea_ice_horizontal_shear_stress_maximum_over_coordinate_rotation > (N m-1) > Stress is the symmetric component of the tensor representing the > gradient of internal forces (e.g. in ice).
