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 | surface_upward_mass_flux_of_carbon_dioxide_expressed_as_carbon_due_to_plant_respiration_in_roots |
| description | Total autotrophic respiration from all belowground plant parts. This has benchmarking value because the sum of Rh and root respiration can be compared to observations of total soil respiration. |
| name | raRoot |
| provenance | CMIP6 endorsement [C4MIP] |
