Variable Mapping update - Future scenarios data Thomas Kleinen MPI-ESM

The marked relevant variables from the runs are contained in the current variable mapping for PalMod2, except for the below listed variables (with CF suggestions):

PalMod specific (reference suggestions in excel sheet plus comments)

  1. Methane emissions from termites
  2. Methane emissions from Herbivores
  3. Methane emissions from Fires (forest plus vegetation)
  4. Methane emissions from Wetlands (base variable available with CF standard name EMon - wetlandCH4, above three variables will be similar in description TBC)
  5. Wetland area percentage wetlandFrac (similar variable sftlf (CF land_area_frac)
  6. Methane uptake by soil
  7. Methane emission (suggestion CF: tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_methane_due_to_emission)
  8. Lightening NOx emission (suggestion CF: tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_nox_expressed_as_nitrogen_due_to_emission)
  9. Atmospheric Methane burden (suggestion CF: atmosphere_mass_content_of_methane)
  10. Mass fraction of CH4 in air (suggestion CF: mass_fraction_of_methane_in_air)
  11. Mass fraction of decayed CH4 in air (suggestion CF: mass_fraction_of_methane_in_air)
  12. Atmospheric Methane decay rate (suggestion CF: tendency_of_atmosphere_mole_concentration_of_methane_due_to_chemical_destruction OR tendency_of_atmosphere_mass_content_of_methane_due_to_emission TBC units)
