Dear Randy
There is already a standard name which I think has the meaning you intend
viz. lwe_thickness_of_atmosphere_water_vapor_content

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

Hi John,
In 30 years in oceanography I've never heard any mention of any doubt that it
is, at least as far as the usual measurement techniques in oceanogrphy are
concerned (polarographic electrodes, Winkler titration and optodes).
The labelling 'dissolved' originated in community usage - it's
Hello Philip,
Was that measured (John's area of concern) or a parameter in a numerical
simulation?
Cheers, Roy.

Dear Charles
Thank you for these proposals. Following Jim's question and your answer, I
appreciate that you can't define a threshold value in a particular quantity
for your application of these masks. Perhaps another question to ask is whether
quantities with these standard names are supposed to

That looks fine to me. It'd be interesting to know if anyone else has comments.
Thanks

Dear Randy
It looks like the resolution you want to indicate is the grid spacing, which
you say is homogeneous. Is that right? If so - this may be silly question
arising from not remembering what has previously been said - can you not work
it out as the difference between any pair of adjacent
Hi Roy, John,
The methane bubbles are in both models and observations. Specifically, the
methane bubbles are measured using sonar reflectivity, and my colleagues are
trying to match those observations in a model.
How much of the bubbles dissolve is of particular importance, and by their
Thanks to you both. Roy's reference to 'dissolved oxygen' explains why the term
would have been added, and Philip's argument for preserving this more narrow
concept makes good sense to me. While I'm imaginging measures of

As you suggest, there is info in the product file that will allow determination
of the pixel / data point resolution albeit not in the most straightforward
manner.
For us, there will be use cases where different products on the same earth
