Parameter integral_​of_​surface_​net_​downward_​longwave_​flux_​wrt_​time

Properties

Properties of the parameter integral_​of_​surface_​net_​downward_​longwave_​flux_​wrt_​time
Name integral_of_surface_net_downward_longwave_flux_wrt_time
Description "integral_of_Y_wrt_X" means int Y dX. The data variable should have an axis for X specifying the limits of the integral as bounds. "wrt" means with respect to. The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. "Downward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). Net downward radiation is the difference between radiation from above (downwelling) and radiation from below (upwelling). "Longwave" means longwave radiation. In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics.
