1.8 CF Standard Names: Virtual Salt Flux Into Sea Water due to Newtonian Relaxation (virtual_salt_flux_into_sea_water_due_to_newtonian_relaxation)

Record Label : virtual_salt_flux_into_sea_water_due_to_newtonian_relaxation

Record Title : Virtual Salt Flux Into Sea Water due to Newtonian Relaxation

CF Standard Name : virtual_salt_flux_into_sea_water_due_to_newtonian_relaxation

Record Description : 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. The virtual_salt_flux_into_sea_water_due_to_newtonian_relaxation is the salt flux that would have the same effect on the sea surface salinity as water_flux_out_of_sea_water_due_to_newtonian_relaxation. In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics.
