The phrase "change_over_time_in_X" means change in a quantity X over a time-interval, which should be defined by the bounds of the time coordinate. The phrase "land_water_amount", often known as "Terrestrial Water Storage", includes surface water (water in rivers, wetlands, lakes, snow, vegetation and reservoirs) and subsurface water (soil moisture, groundwater). "Amount" means mass per unit area.

The phrase "change_over_time_in_X" means change in a quantity X over a time-interval, which should be defined by the bounds of the time coordinate. "Amount" means mass per unit area. "Water" means water in all phases. The quantity with standard name land_water_amount, often known as "Terrestrial Water Storage", includes surface liquid water (water in rivers, wetlands, lakes, reservoirs, rainfall intercepted by the canopy), surface ice and snow (glaciers, ice caps, grounded ice sheets, river and lake ice and other surface ice such as frozen flood water, snow lying on the surface and intercepted by the canopy) and subsurface water (liquid and frozen soil water, groundwater).
