Record Title : Tendency of Sea Water Salinity Expressed as Salt Content Due to Residual Mean Advection
CF Standard Name : tendency_of_sea_water_salinity_expressed_as_salt_content_due_to_residual_mean_advection
Units of Measure : kg m-2 s-1
Record Description : The phrase "residual mean advection" refers to the sum of the model's resolved advective transport plus any parameterized advective transport. Parameterized advective transport includes processes such as parameterized mesoscale and submesoscale transport, as well as any other advectively parameterized transport. When the parameterized advective transport is represented in the model as a skew-diffusion rather than an advection, then the parameterized skew diffusion should be included in this diagnostic, since the convergence of skew-fluxes are identical (in the continuous formulation) to the convergence of advective fluxes.
