This is what the atmosphere sees (on its own grid).  This field should be equivalent to the combined natural fluxes of carbon (requested in the L_mon and O_mon tables) that account for natural exchanges between the atmosphere and land or ocean reservoirs (i.e., ""net ecosystem biospheric productivity"", for land, and ""air to sea CO2 flux"", for ocean.)

comment:           For some simulations (e.g., prescribed concentration pi-control run), this will not vary from one year to the next, and so report instead the variable described in the next table entry.  If spatially uniform, omit this field, but report Total Atmospheric Mass of CO2 (see the table entry after the next one).
