1.8 CF Standard Names: Northward Ocean Salt Transport due to Diffusion (northward_ocean_salt_transport_due_to_diffusion)

Record Label : northward_ocean_salt_transport_due_to_diffusion

Record Title : Northward Ocean Salt Transport due to Diffusion

CF Standard Name : northward_ocean_salt_transport_due_to_diffusion

Record Description : "Northward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed northward (negative southward). "Salt transport" means the mass of salt being transported. Northward transport by diffusion means the part due to horizontal or isopyncal diffusion schemes in an ocean model, but not including the parameterized eddy velocity. 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.
