Dear Jonathan, Alison,
(a) carbon_dioxide vs. 13C_dioxide: I agree that carbon_dioxide is correct and clearer; (b) surface_upward_mass_flux_of_nitrogen_compounds_expressed_as_nitrogen: I selected the shorter form (surface_upward_mass_flux_of_nitrogen) for consistency with terms such as "stem_mass_content_of_nitrogen", but I'm happy to go with the longer form if it is considered necessary; (c) mass_content: thanks for spotting the error, regards, Martin ________________________________ From: CF-metadata <[email protected]> on behalf of Alison Pamment - UKRI STFC <[email protected]> Sent: 04 May 2018 14:27 To: 'Jonathan Gregory'; [email protected] Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] PMIP (including 1 or more that originated in C4MIP) Standard Names: Carbon and Nitrogen terms Dear Jonathan, Well spotted! I think they should all say 'mass_content'. So we should have nitrogen_mass_content_of_forestry_and_agricultural_products (kg m-2) for nProduct soil_mass_content_of_nitrogen (kg m-2) for nSoil. I will update them in the standard names editor. They will still be published in the May update. In the last update I made some aliases for carbon content names and I've just realised I missed one: vegetation_carbon_content -> vegetation_mass_content_of_carbon (kg m-2). I'll add this one into the May update.

I also agree with you about nitrogen_compounds_expressed_as_nitrogen. Reading through this list, I compared these: > litter_mass_content_of_nitrogen (kg m-2) > nitrogen_content_of_forestry_and_agricultural_products (kg m-2) > (kg m-2) vegetation_mass_content_of_nitrogen (kg > m-2) Why do two of them have mass_content and two just content?
