ocean variables in wrong tables

[taylor13]

@martinjuckes @durack1

omldamax is in "day" but should be in "Oday". mlotst is in Eday but should be in "Oday"

hfds in Eday requested by LS3MIP looks wrong to me because it is defined as surface downward heat flux in sea water, but LS3MIP shouldn't care about this. I'm guessing they wanted the net heat flux into the land surface. If it is retained as is, it should be moved to "Oday".

zfull in Eyr requested by LUMIP and C4MIP is probably not right. It might be the soil levels for LUMIP. not sure for C4MIP, but I don't think "height_above_reference_ellipsoid" would be used for the ocean levels. rather, "depth_below_geoid" is more likely.

rsdoabsorb, tnkebto, and dispkexyfo should be moved from "Eyr" to "Oyr" and check that they don't duplicate variables requested by the omon folks.

The "ocean" and "ocnBgchem" variables in Emon (there are many dozens of these) should be moved to Omon and check for duplicates. Also, in Emon a number of variables are labeled "atmos" and have areacella attached, but they should be "ocean" or "ocnBgchem" and have areacello and volcello attached.

@martinjuckes I can move these into the appropriate sheets to clean this up. Let me know if this is what you'd prefer, and where to source the (correct) entries from.

For your info the 3 OMIP/Ocean variable sheets can be perused at: Biogeochemistry: https://goo.gl/Fyr6QW Chemistry: https://goo.gl/BrXVgb Physics: https://goo.gl/Rhrcwp

I'm taking a guess at the variables @taylor13 is talking about, I've pulled the info below from http://clipc-services.ceda.ac.uk/dreq/index/CMORvar.html

zfull (Altitude of Model Full-Levels) exists in CF3hr, Eyr, zfullo (Depth Below Geoid of Ocean Layer) exists in Oclim, Omon and Emon (I suggest the Emon entry is removed/deleted)

Candidates for the physics sheet: omldamax (Daily Maximum Ocean Mixed Layer Thickness Defined by Mixing Scheme), mlotst (Ocean Mixed Layer Thickness Defined by Sigma T), hfds (Downward Heat Flux at Sea Water Surface) exists in Eday, Odec and Omon - there are variants hfdsn in LImon and hfdsnb and hfdsnt all in Eday

rsdoabsorb (net rate of absorption of shortwave energy in ocean layer) exists in Oyr, Eyr and Emon

tnkebto (tendency of ocean eddy kinetic energy content due to parameterized eddy advection) exists in Oyr

tnkebto (Tendency of Ocean Eddy Kinetic Energy Content due to Bolus Transport) exists in Oclim and Eyr, variants tnkebto2d (Tendency of Ocean Eddy Kinetic Energy Content due to Bolus Transport exist in Oclim

dispkexyfo (ocean kinetic energy dissipation per unit area due to xy friction) exists in Oyr, Eyr (with different capitalization) and Oclim (also with different capitalization), and variant dispkexyfo2d exists in Oclim (there is also the v variant)

Candidates for the biogeochemistry sheet: Everything @taylor13 indicated in the bottom comment above, referencing the Emon variables

one further note about "zfull" and "zfullo". Sometimes the CMOR name is zfull and sometimes it is zfullo. Sometimes the variable name is zfull and sometimes it is zfullo. All combinations can be found across tables Emon, Eyr, Omon, and Oclim. In CMIP5 we invariably used zfull for both the atmosphere and ocean. If you want them to be different (o.k. with me), I would invariably use "zfull" for atmosphere (consistent with CMIP5) and "zfullo" for the ocean (for both cmor and variable name).

omldamax: fixed mlotst: this is not in Oday because OMIP have not requested it.

hfdsl added

tnkebto, dispkexyfo: checking with Jonathon, who requested these as 2d variables.

rsdoabsorb: done

zfull: in progress.

[martinjuckes]

tnkebto, dispkexyfo adjusted to surface fields in OMIP tables -- FAFMIP and OMIP now using same defns.
