Record Label : epfe100
Record Title : Downward Flux of Particulate Iron
CF Standard Name : sinking_mole_flux_of_particulate_iron_in_sea_water
Units of Measure : mol m-2 s-1
Record Description : In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. 'Sinking' is the gravitational settling of particulate matter suspended in a liquid. A sinking flux is positive downwards and is calculated relative to the movement of the surrounding fluid.
