| description | Contains contributions from all physical processes affecting the northward heat transport, including resolved advection, parameterized advection, lateral diffusion, etc. Diagnosed here as a function of latitude and basin. Use Celsius for temperature scale. |
| dimensions | latitude, basin, time |

| name | Omon.hfbasin |
| physical_parameter | hfbasin (Northward Ocean Heat Transport) |
| processing_note | 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.
