Record Label : surface_snow_and_ice_melt_heat_flux
Record Title : Surface Snow And Ice Melt Heat Flux
CF Standard Name : surface_snow_and_ice_melt_heat_flux
Record Description : The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. The snow and ice melt heat flux is the supply of latent heat which is melting snow and ice at freezing point.
