1.8 CF Standard Names: Tendency of Mole Concentration of Dissolved Inorganic Silicon in Sea Water due to Biological Processes (tendency_of_mole_concentration_of_dissolved_inorganic_silicon_in_sea_water_due_to_biological_processes)

Record Label : tendency_of_mole_concentration_of_dissolved_inorganic_silicon_in_sea_water_due_to_biological_processes

Record Title : Tendency of Mole Concentration of Dissolved Inorganic Silicon in Sea Water due to Biological Processes

CF Standard Name : tendency_of_mole_concentration_of_dissolved_inorganic_silicon_in_sea_water_due_to_biological_processes

Record Description : The phrase "tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. Mole concentration means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y, where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". 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. "Dissolved inorganic silicon" means the sum of all inorganic silicon in solution (including silicic acid and its first dissociated anion SiO(OH)3-).

Canonical Units : mol m-3 s-1

MIP Variable : Rate of Change of Dissolved Inorganic Silicon Due to Biological Activity
