Hello Philip, Was that measured (John's area of concern) or a parameter in a numerical simulation?
Cheers, Roy. ________________________________________ From: CF-metadata [[email protected]] On Behalf Of Cameron-smith, Philip [[email protected]] Sent: 18 May 2013 10:12 To: '[email protected]'; '[email protected]' Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] is molecular oxygen in seawater always dissolved? Hi John, I don't recall the original discussion. However, I do work on a problem involving both dissolved methane and methane that is in bubbles, and the distinction is critical, ie we need to know whether a plume of bubbles will make it to the ocean surface. Best wishes, Philip Sent by Philip Cameron-Smith from his blackberry. ----- Original Message ----- From: John Graybeal [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 17, 2013 11:47 AM To: CF Metadata List <[email protected]> Subject: [CF-metadata] is molecular oxygen in seawater always dissolved? Hi all, I found an odd thing in one of the standard names, and I'm not sure if it's exactly right or I need another name. For context: We (Marinexplore, new affiliation) are aggregating data from A Lot of different sources. So this question is not about one specific observation, but how to best represent all the observations we'll be working with. The name is mole_concentration_of_dissolved_molecular_oxygen_in_sea_water. There is no equivalent name without "dissolved", and I am wondering if a mole concentration of molecular oxygen in sea water will always be dissolved? Or should I request a name without that in it? (In the original CF email from 2010 requesting this name "dissolved" did not appear, and it isn't clear from the history what motivated its inclusion.) Thanks for your advice, and thanks to Alison for your research help.
