Dear Jonathan, Yes, I considered "vertical_component_of_curl_of_surface_downward_stress" too, but decided to propose the shorter one. I quite understand your desire for consistency of formulation and have no problem accepting your alternative. However, since we have already tooled up for my proposal, it would be more *convenient* for us if you choose "vertical_component_of_surface_downward_stress_curl". Perhaps you could define it as an alias? Your call.
