1.2 MIP Variable: Natural Delta CO2 Partial Pressure (dpco2nat)

Record Label : dpco2nat

Record Title : Natural Delta CO2 Partial Pressure

CF Standard Name : surface_carbon_dioxide_natural_analogue_partial_pressure_difference_between_sea_water_and_air

Units of Measure : Pa

Record Description : Difference in partial pressure of natural-analogue carbon dioxide between sea water and air. The partial pressure of a dissolved gas in sea water is the partial pressure in air with which it would be in equilibrium. 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.
