Description : sum of chlorophyll from all phytoplankton group concentrations at the sea surface. In most models this is equal to chldiat+chlmisc, that is the sum of "Diatom Chlorophyll Mass Concentration" plus "Other Phytoplankton Chlorophyll Mass Concentration"

Request variable (carrying priority and link to group) : chlos ((isd.006))
