1.2 MIP Variable: Surface Natural Carbonate Ion Concentration (co3natos)

Record Label : co3natos

Record Title : Surface Natural Carbonate Ion Concentration

CF Standard Name : mole_concentration_of_carbonate_natural_analogue_expressed_as_carbon_in_sea_water

Units of Measure : mol m-3

Record Description : Near surface mole concentration (number of moles per unit volume: molarity) of the natural-analogue carbonate anion (CO3). A natural analogue is used to simulate the effect on a modelled variable of imposing preindustrial atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, even when the model as a whole may be subjected to varying forcings.
