Record Label : tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_peroxyacetyl_nitrate_due_to_dry_deposition
Record Title : Tendency of Atmosphere Mass Content of Peroxyacetyl Nitrate due to Dry Deposition
CF Standard Name : tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_peroxyacetyl_nitrate_due_to_dry_deposition
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 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. "tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. "Dry deposition" is the sum of turbulent deposition and gravitational settling. The chemical formula for peroxyacetyl nitrate, sometimes referred to as PAN, is CH3COO2NO2. The IUPAC name for peroxyacetyl_nitrate is nitroethaneperoxoate.
