Parameter downwelling_​photon_​radiance_​in_​sea_​water

Properties

Properties of the parameter downwelling_​photon_​radiance_​in_​sea_​water
Name downwelling_photon_radiance_in_sea_water
Description Downwelling radiation is radiation from above. It does not mean "net downward". Photon radiance is the photon flux in a particular direction, per unit of solid angle. The direction from which it is coming must be specified, for instance with a coordinate of zenith_angle. If the radiation does not depend on direction, a standard name of isotropic radiance should be chosen instead. A photon flux is specified in terms of numbers of photons expressed in moles.
AMIP code (Library of AMIP Data Transmission Standards) not specified
GRIB code not specified
