1.8 CF Standard Names: Liquid Water Mass Flux Into Soil due to Surface Snow Melt (liquid_water_mass_flux_into_soil_due_to_surface_snow_melt)

Record Label : liquid_water_mass_flux_into_soil_due_to_surface_snow_melt

Record Title : Liquid Water Mass Flux Into Soil due to Surface Snow Melt

CF Standard Name : liquid_water_mass_flux_into_soil_due_to_surface_snow_melt

Record Description : In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. The phrase "surface_snow" means snow lying on the surface. The specification of a physical process by the phrase "due_to_" process means that the quantity named is a single term in a sum of terms which together compose the general quantity named by omitting the phrase.

Canonical Units : kg m-2 s-1

MIP Variable : Water Flowing out of Snowpack
