| physical_parameter | msftyzmpa (Ocean Y Overturning Mass Streamfunction Due to Parameterized Mesoscale Advection) |
| primary_modelling_realm | Ocean |
| processing_note | Function of Y, rho, basin. For a model with a cartesian latxlon grid, this is the same as the "Ocean Meridional Overturning Mass Streamfunction" (msftmrho) and so the y-overturning variable should in this case be omitted. For a model where these are distinct, this variable should contain a grid-oriented quasi-meridional overturning, in contrast with msftmrho, which is the actual \*meridional\* overturning (with north-south flow about an east-west axis).
