| description | In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. 'Sinking' is the gravitational settling of particulate matter suspended in a liquid. A sinking flux is positive downwards and is calculated relative to the movement of the surrounding fluid. |

| name | Omon.epn100 |
| physical_parameter | epn100 (Downward Flux of Particulate Nitrogen) |
| processing_note | at 100 m depth. CHANGE SINCE CMIP6 in Dimensions - CMIP6:longitude latitude time depth100m CMIP7:longitude latitude time depth100m, CHANGE SINCE CMIP6 in Dimensions - CMIP6:longitude latitude time depth100m CMIP7:longitude latitude time depth100m depth200m, CHANGE SINCE CMIP6 in Dimensions - CMIP6:longitude latitude time depth100m CMIP7:longitude latitude time depth100m depth1000m, Changes since reverted/fixed. Variable now matches CMIP6 definition. |
