Term: tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_formaldehyde_due_to_wet_deposition

Unit: kg m-2 s-1

Unit ref: KSP2

AMIP:

GRIB:

"Content" indicates a quantity per unit area. The "atmosphere content" of a quantity refers to the vertical integral from the surface to the top of the atmosphere. For the content between specified levels in the atmosphere, standard names including "content_of_atmosphere_layer" are used. The mass is the total mass of the molecules. The specification of a physical process by the phrase "due_to_" process means that the quantity named is a single term in a sum of terms which together compose the general quantity named by omitting the phrase. "Wet deposition" means deposition by precipitation. "tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. The chemical formula for formaldehyde is CH2O. The IUPAC name for formaldehyde is methanal.
