1.8 CF Standard Names: Mass Concentration of Zooplankton Expressed As Carbon in Sea Water (mass_concentration_of_zooplankton_expressed_as_carbon_in_sea_water)

Record Label : mass_concentration_of_zooplankton_expressed_as_carbon_in_sea_water

Record Title : Mass Concentration of Zooplankton Expressed As Carbon in Sea Water

CF Standard Name : mass_concentration_of_zooplankton_expressed_as_carbon_in_sea_water

Record Description : "Mass concentration" means mass per unit volume and is used in the construction "mass_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical species or biological group denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". The phrase "expressed_as" is used in the construction A_expressed_as_B, where B is a chemical constituent of A. It means that the quantity indicated by the standard name is calculated solely with respect to the B contained in A, neglecting all other chemical constituents of A. "Zooplankton" means the total zooplankton population, with components such as mesozooplankton, microzooplankton and miscellaneous zooplankton.
