1.2 MIP Variable: Mass Fraction of Stratiform Cloud Liquid Water (clws)

Record Label : clws

Record Title : Mass Fraction of Stratiform Cloud Liquid Water

CF Standard Name : mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_liquid_water_in_air

Units of Measure : 1

Record Description : Calculated as the mass of stratiform cloud liquid water in the grid cell divided by the mass of air (including the water in all phases) in the grid cell. This includes precipitating hydrometeors ONLY if the precipitating hydrometeors affect the calculation of radiative transfer in model.
