Hello again,
When looking at the CF names defined for chemical constituents
summarized at
http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/LIST_OF_CHEMICAL_SPECIES_AND_AEROSOLS
it seemed to me that it would be more logical to attach the
'expressed_as' to the quality it refers to, e.g.
tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_nox_expressed_as_nitrogen_due_to_emission
In some of the accepted standard names this is however not the case,
like for example in
mole_concentration_of_diatoms_in_sea_water_expressed_as_nitrogen
In this case the Medium is squeezed in.
Best regards,
Christiane
