1.2 MIP Variable: Mass Fraction of Cloud Ice (cli)

Record Label : cli

Record Title : Mass Fraction of Cloud Ice

CF Standard Name : mass_fraction_of_cloud_ice_in_air

Units of Measure : kg kg-1

Record Description : Includes both large-scale and convective cloud. This is calculated as the mass of cloud ice in the grid cell divided by the mass of air (including the water in all phases) in the grid cell. It includes precipitating hydrometeors ONLY if the precipitating hydrometeors affect the calculation of radiative transfer in model.
