1.2 MIP Variable: Carbon-14 Mass Flux out of Atmosphere Due to Gross Primary Production on Land [kgC m-2 s-1] (gppc14)

Record Label : gppc14

Record Title : Carbon-14 Mass Flux out of Atmosphere Due to Gross Primary Production on Land [kgC m-2 s-1]

CF Standard Name : gross_primary_productivity_of_biomass_expressed_as_14C

Units of Measure : kg m-2 s-1

Record Description : The rate of synthesis of carbon-14 in biomass from inorganic precursors by autotrophs ("producers") expressed as the mass of carbon which it contains. For example, photosynthesis in plants or phytoplankton. The producers also respire some of this biomass and the difference is referred to as the net primary production.
