1.8 CF Standard Names: Product of Northward Wind And Air Temperature (product_of_northward_wind_and_air_temperature)

Record Label : product_of_northward_wind_and_air_temperature

Record Title : Product of Northward Wind And Air Temperature

CF Standard Name : product_of_northward_wind_and_air_temperature

Record Description : "product_of_X_and_Y" means X*Y. Air temperature is the bulk temperature of the air, not the surface (skin) temperature. "Northward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed northward (negative southward). Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.)

Canonical Units : K m s-1

MIP Variable : Product of Air Temperature and Northward Wind
