Hi Daniel,
These look straightforward to me and would be a useful addition. Cheers, Roy. I have now retired but will continue to be active through an Emeritus Fellowship using this e-mail address. ________________________________ From: CF-metadata <cf-metadata-boun...@cgd.ucar.edu> on behalf of Daniel Neumann <daniel.neum...@io-warnemuende.de> Sent: 22 November 2018 09:08 To: cf-metadata@cgd.ucar.edu Subject: [CF-metadata] New standard names for Dissolved Inorganic Nitrogen and Particulate Organic Nitrogen Dear all, I would like to propose two new standard names: mole_concentration_of_dissolved_inorganic_nitrogen_in_sea_water mole_concentration_of_particulate_organic_nitrogen_in_sea_water A similar standard name for "dissolved inorganic phosphorus" exists already. Moreover, a few tendency/flux standard names exist for "dissolved inorganic nitrogen" and "particulate organic nitrogen". The descriptions and units are given below. Regards, Daniel name: mole_concentration_of_dissolved_inorganic_nitrogen_in_sea_water description: Mole concentration means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction "mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". "Dissolved inorganic nitrogen" means the sum of all inorganic nitrogen in solution (including nitrate, ammonia, and nitrite). unit: mol m-3 name: mole_concentration_of_particulate_organic_nitrogen_in_sea_water description: Mole concentration means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction "mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". "Particulate organic nitrogen" means the sum of all organic nitrogen compounds, which are solid or which are bound to solid particles. unit: mol m-3 -- Daniel Neumann Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemuende Physical Oceanography and Instrumentation Seestrasse 15 18119 Rostock Germany phone: +49-381-5197-287 fax: +49-381-5197-114 or 440 e-mail: daniel.neum...@io-warnemuende.de This email and any attachments are intended solely for the use of the named recipients.
