1.2 MIP Variable: Surface Total Dissolved Inorganic Silicon Concentration (sios)

Record Label : sios

Record Title : Surface Total Dissolved Inorganic Silicon Concentration

CF Standard Name : mole_concentration_of_dissolved_inorganic_silicon_in_sea_water

Units of Measure : mol m-3

Record Description : Mole concentration means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction "mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". "Dissolved inorganic silicon" means the sum of all inorganic silicon in solution (including silicic acid and its first dissociated anion SiO(OH)3-).
