Each Physical Parameter record defines a MIP variable name, associated with a CF Standard Name. Formerly known as MIP Variables in CMIP6
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| cf_standard_name | tendency_of_northward_wind_due_to_orographic_gravity_wave_drag |
| description | Tendency of the northward wind by parameterized orographic gravity waves. (Note that CF name tables only have a general northward tendency for all gravity waves, and we need it separated by type.) |
