1.8 CF Standard Names: Surface Downward X Stress Correction (surface_downward_x_stress_correction)

Record Label : surface_downward_x_stress_correction

Record Title : Surface Downward X Stress Correction

CF Standard Name : surface_downward_x_stress_correction

Record Description : "x" indicates a vector component along the grid x-axis, positive with increasing x. "Downward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere.
