1.2 MIP Variable: Dry Deposition Rate of Dry Aerosol Total Organic Matter (dryoa)

Record Label : dryoa

Record Title : Dry Deposition Rate of Dry Aerosol Total Organic Matter

CF Standard Name : minus_tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_particulate_organic_matter_dry_aerosol_particles_due_to_dry_deposition

Units of Measure : kg m-2 s-1

Record Description : Tendency of atmosphere mass content of organic dry aerosol due to dry deposition: This is the sum of dry deposition of primary organic aerosol (POA) and dry deposition of secondary organic aerosol (SOA). Here, mass refers to the mass of organic matter, not mass of organic carbon alone. We recommend a scale factor of POM=1.4*OC, unless your model has more detailed info available. Was called dry_pom in old ACCMIP Excel table. Dry deposition includes gravitational settling and turbulent deposition.
