| description | In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. "Vegetation" means any living plants e.g. trees, shrubs, grass. "Litter" is dead plant material in or above the soil. It is distinct from coarse wood debris. The precise distinction between "fine" and "coarse" is model dependent. The sum of the quantities with standard names mass\_flux\_of\_carbon\_into\_litter\_from\_vegetation\_due\_to\_mortality and mass\_flux\_of\_carbon\_into\_litter\_from\_vegetation\_due\_to\_senescence is mass\_flux\_of\_carbon\_into\_litter\_from\_vegetation. |
