Total Column Maps
Total column fields represent the sum total of a given constituent throughout the atmosphere. It is derived by summing over all model layers from the surface to the top of the atmosphere (this is known as the "column" at a given location). Use these fields to assess the total atmospheric content.
Tropospheric column fields represent the sum of a given constituent from the surface to the tropopause.
