Hi.

Does this standard name request need to be restated with the new name, or has it been accepted?

Grace and peace,

Jim

Dear Johnathan,
“number_concentration_of_ozone_molecules_in_air” as standard name would be ok, 
yes.

Thanks for your help with this!
Cheers,
Birgit

Dear Birgit

standard name: Ozone number density
alternatively: Ozone number concentration
unit: molecules/m^3

Some ozone satellite instruments (like the ?Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas 
Experiment?, SAGE, or the ?Polar Ozone and Aerosol Measurment?, POAM) measure 
ozone in their native unit number density (number of ozone molecules that are 
present in a m^3 of air).
We want to add an ozone data set to the National Climate Data Center (NCDC), 
and have to be CF compliant. Ozone number density does not seem to be on the CF 
standard names list, and we would therefore like to add it.
There are several standard_names of the form number_concentration_of_X_in_air
in m-3, so I suggest this one shoudl conform to that pattern i.e.
number_concentration_of_ozone_molecules_in_air. Would that be OK?

Cheers

Jonathan
