| description | Calculated as the convective mass flux divided by the area of the whole grid cell (not just the area of the cloud). |
| dimensions | longitude, latitude, alevhalf, time |
| disambiguation | South30 |
| modelling_realm | Atmospheric |
| name | atmos.mcd.tavg-alh-hxy-u.mon.30S-90S |
| physical_parameter | mcd (Downdraft Convective Mass Flux) |
| positive_direction | down |
| primary_modelling_realm | Atmospheric |
| processing_note | Report on model half-levels (i.e., model layer bounds and not standard pressures). This is a regional subset of the variable. If you are producing the global equivalent of CFmon.mcdSouth30, you should omit this regional South30 version. |
