Record Label : rMaint

Record Title : Carbon Mass Flux into Atmosphere Due to Maintenance Autotrophic Respiration on Land [kgC m-2 s-1]

Record Identifier : bab4bc2e-e5dd-11e5-8482-ac72891c3257

Link to a record specifying the structure of the variable : str-041

MIP Variable : rMaint

Deflate: NetCDF compression parameter :

Deflate Level: NetCDF compression parameter :

Shuffle: NetCDF compression parameter :

Indicative priority for this parameter, which is over-ruled by the requestVar priority setting, but provides a reference for organisation of the CMORvariables : 2

Data value type, e.g. float or double : real

Modeling Realm : land

CMOR Directive Positive : up

Link to MIP table record : Lmon

The MIP table : Lmon

Provenance : Lmon ((isd.003))

Processing Notes : This flux and rGrowth provide a breakdown of the higher priority "Autotrophic (Plant) Respiration" [ra]; thus the sum should be identical to that.

Provenance Note :

Frequency of Time Steps to be Archived : mon

Row index of entry in source sheet : 68

Description : Maintenance respiration is defined as the carbon cost to support the metabolic activity of existing live tissue.
