Hi Alison, Yes, please use mol kg-1 as the canonical unit.
Thanks, Ajay *alison.pamment at stfc.ac.uk <http://stfc.ac.uk>* alison.pamment at stfc.ac.uk <cf-metadata%40cgd.ucar.edu?Subject=Re%3A%20%5BCF-metadata%5D%20Request%20for%20new%0A%09standard-name%3A%09apparent_oxygen_utilization&In-Reply-To=%3C014539AC4976BE4490A360410A8C20178A2D6062%40EXCHMBX01.fed.cclrc.ac.uk%3E> *Thu Feb 26 03:56:32 MST 2015* Dear All, Thank you for the constructive discussion of this proposal - it seems that agreement has been reached on apparent_oxygen_utilisation with canonical units of mol kg-1. (Just to double check: is this the correct unit for use with the World Ocean Database, which I believe is the reason for requesting the name in the first place. Units of mol m-3 have also been mentioned in this discussion, but this could be a misunderstanding. Best wishes, Alison
