Time-integrated surface sensible heat flux
| Name: | time_integrated_surface_sensible_heat_flux | Abbreviation: | sshf | Unit: | W m-2 s |
| Definition | Exchange of heat (no phase transitions) with the surface through turbulent diffusion. |
| Validity | Accumulated from the beginning of the forecast |
| Comment | The flux sign convention is positive downwards. The field will be archived once a day at 00Z |
