Dear all,

I'd like to propose two variable names to be included in the CF standard name table for u and v components of momentum fluxes due to vertical diffusion (rho*u'w' and rho*v'w'). These two variables are part of diagnostic output of IFS model at ECMWF and they are required for the CEOP Phase II project.

I checked the CF list and found the following two possible naming alternatives:

1) downward_eastward_momentum_flux_in_air_due_to_diffusion [Pa]
   downward_northward_momentum_flux_in_air_due_to_diffusion [Pa]

2) atmosphere_eastward_stress_due_to_diffusion [Pa]
   atmosphere_northward_stress_due_to_diffusion [Pa]

Please let me know your comments.

Kind regards,
Tomas
