Re: [CF-metadata] Request for new standard-name: apparent_oxygen_utilization

Hi Hernan, Shouldn't you specifically mention that it's the oxygen solubility at atmospheric pressure? I would also still like to keep the reference. That would take us to: Apparent Oxygen Utilization (AOU) is the difference between the oxygen solubility at a pressure of 1 atmosphere (101325

Re: [CF-metadata] Request for new standard-name: apparent_oxygen_utilization

Hi again Hernan, I was taking T and S as being constant, not trying to be prescriptive about computation algorithm. Next proposal (based on a Wikipedia quote from Garcia et al 2006): Apparent Oxygen Utilization (AOU) is the difference between the measured dissolved oxygen

As I Am Not A Scientist, may I suggest that the text that was lost in this latest round, "It is used to estimate the change in dissolved oxygen in a parcel of water due to biological and chemical processes at depth since it left the surface." is important, because it explains to the rest of us w
