Record Title : Surface Carbon Dioxide Partial Pressure Difference Between Sea Water And Air

CF Standard Name : surface_carbon_dioxide_partial_pressure_difference_between_sea_water_and_air

Record Description : The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. The chemical formula for carbon dioxide is CO2. The partial pressure of a dissolved gas in sea water is the partial pressure in air with which it would be in equilibrium. The partial pressure of a gaseous constituent of air is the pressure that it would exert if all other gaseous constituents were removed, assuming the volume, the temperature, and its number of moles remain unchanged. The partial pressure difference between sea water and air is positive when the partial pressure of the dissolved gas in sea water is greater than the partial pressure in air.

Canonical Units : Pa

MIP Variable : Delta CO2 Partial Pressure
