Provenance : Omon ((isd.003))

Processing Notes : For models which do not have a Cartesian lat-long grid, this transport can be approximated as thetransport across zig-zag paths corresponding to latitudes with spacing between latitudes appropriate tothe model's resolution, as is done for the ocean meridional overturning mass streamfunction.

Description : Contributions to heat transport from parameterized mesoscale eddy-induced diffusive transport (i.e., neutral diffusion). Diagnosed here as a function of latitude and basin.
