Dear Jonathan, These names were among the CMIP5 quantities that were added at the last table update. I agree that changing the phrase to cloud_liquid_water for these names would be more consistent with all other cloud liquid names (including several others that were newly introduced for CMIP5). I will add aliases for these three quantities:
tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_ice_in_air_due_to_heteroge neous_nucleation_from_cloud_liquid will become tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_ice_in_air_due_to_heteroge neous_nucleation_from_cloud_liquid_water tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_ice_in_air_due_to_melting_ to_cloud_liquid will become tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_ice_in_air_due_to_melting_ to_cloud_liquid_water tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_ice_in_air_due_to_riming_f rom_cloud_liquid will become tendency_of_mass_fraction_of_stratiform_cloud_ice_in_air_due_to_riming_f rom_cloud_liquid_water Best wishes, Alison ------ Alison Pamment Tel: +44 1235 778065 NCAS/British Atmospheric Data Centre Fax: +44 1235 446314 Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Email: [email protected] Chilton, Didcot, OX11 0QX, U.K. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:cf-metadata- > [email protected]] On Behalf Of Jonathan Gregory > Sent: 16 February 2010 22:45 > To: [email protected] > Subject: [CF-metadata] cloud_liquid in standard names? > > Dear all > > I notice that three standard names (probably recently) added have the > phrase > cloud_liquid.
