1.8 CF Standard Names: Tendency of Specific Humidity due to Stratiform Precipitation (tendency_of_specific_humidity_due_to_stratiform_precipitation)

Record Label : tendency_of_specific_humidity_due_to_stratiform_precipitation

Record Title : Tendency of Specific Humidity due to Stratiform Precipitation

CF Standard Name : tendency_of_specific_humidity_due_to_stratiform_precipitation

Record Description : The phrase "tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. Specific humidity is the mass fraction of water vapor in (moist) air. 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. In an atmosphere model, stratiform cloud is that produced by large-scale convergence (not the convection schemes). "Precipitation" in the earth's atmosphere means precipitation of water in all phases.
