It is the philosophy of CF only define those standard_names for which a demand has been expressed. The proposed standard_names on this page are needed for a [http://aqm.jrc.it/HTAP/ model intercomparison] within the Task Force on Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution [http://www.htap.org/ TF HTAP].

The proposed standard_names listed below are based on the ideas provided at [[CF Standard Names - Future Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosol Terms|Construction of Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosol Terms and Future Standard_Names]]. They are constructed from name components and species mentioned in tables 1 and 2 of that page.

Return to Start page for Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosol Names PLEASE DO NOT USE THE NAVIGATION BAR ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE!


The table is updated according to the discussions in the CF mailing list.

Version 1: 18.08.2006
Version 2: 26.09.2006
Version 3: 05.10.2006
Version 4: 10.10.2006
Version 5: 31.10.2006
Version 6: 21.12.2006
Version 7: 04.01.2007
Version 8: 09.01.2007
Version 9: 02.05.2007

It is the philosophy of CF only define those standard_names for which a demand has been expressed. The proposed standard_names on this page are needed for a model intercomparison within the Task Force on Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution TF HTAP.

Goto the the list of HTAP Accepted Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosol Names

The proposed standard_names listed below are based on the ideas provided at Construction of Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosol Terms and Future Standard_Names. They are constructed from name components and species mentioned in tables 1 and 2 of that page.


Comments to ChristianeTextor or directly on the discussion page are highly welcome!

You can directly modify the tables here, all versions are stored under 'history'. However, in order to keep track of the changes, please send an email to ChristianeTextor.

atmosphere_optical_thickness_due_to_dust_ambient_aerosol 1 The wavelength should be given as as scalar coordinate variables using the standard name radiation_wavelength


atmosphere_optical_thickness_due_to_particulate_organic_matter_ambient_aerosol 1 The wavelength should be given as as scalar coordinate variables using the standard name radiation_wavelength
atmosphere_optical_thickness_due_to_water_in_ambient_aerosol 1 The wavelength should be given as as scalar coordinate variables using the standard name radiation_wavelength
others
cell_area m2 model grid cell area
cell_thickness m model grid cell height
HTAP experiments with tagged CO
The tag will be given by a standard_name like 'tracer_tag' or 'tracer_mark' that contains a non-standardized string. This tag will be a coordinate variable.
