| 11 | tauu | Surface Downward Eastward Wind Stress | surface_downward_eastward_stress | TAUX | tauu = -TAUX | yes | J.Zhang | Mar 2, 2019 Note, I was analyzing this variable from e3sm output. It turns out that TAUX(Y) is surface stress, which is in opposite direction to tauu(v) (wind stress). This was not caught in CAM's conversion table. | yes | ||||
