1.2 MIP Variable: Refreezing of Water in the Snow (snrefr)

Record Label : snrefr

Record Title : Refreezing of Water in the Snow

CF Standard Name : surface_snow_and_ice_refreezing_flux

Units of Measure : kg m-2 s-1

Record Description : In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. "Surface snow and ice refreezing flux" means the mass flux of surface meltwater which refreezes within the snow or firn.
