| cf_standard_name | surface_downward_northward_stress_due_to_boundary_layer_mixing |
| description | The downward northward stress associated with the models parameterization of the planetary boundary layer. (This request is related to a WGNE effort to understand how models parameterize the surface stresses.) |
