Record Label : tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_nox_expressed_as_nitrogen_monoxide_due_to_emission_from_soil
Record Title : Tendency of Atmosphere Mass Content of Nox Expressed As Nitrogen Monoxide due to Emission from Soil
CF Standard Name : tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_nox_expressed_as_nitrogen_monoxide_due_to_emission_from_soil
Record Description : "Content" indicates a quantity per unit area. The "atmosphere content" of a quantity refers to the vertical integral from the surface to the top of the atmosphere. For the content between specified levels in the atmosphere, standard names including "content_of_atmosphere_layer" are used. The phrase "expressed_as" is used in the construction A_expressed_as_B, where B is a chemical constituent of A. It means that the quantity indicated by the standard name is calculated solely with respect to the B contained in A, neglecting all other chemical constituents of A. 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. "Emission" means emission from a primary source located anywhere within the atmosphere, including at the lower boundary (i.e. the surface of the earth). "Emission" is a process entirely distinct from "re-emission" which is used in some standard names. "tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. The chemical formula for nitrogen monoxide is NO. "Nox" means a combination of two radical species containing nitrogen and oxygen NO+NO2.
