Spurious diapycnal mixing of the deep waters in an eddy-permitting global ocean model

Lee et al conducted a study to see whether the diapycnal mixing associated with the advection scheme in a global eddy-permitting z-level model is sufficiently strong to corrupt the thermohaline circulation. They diagnose the diapycnal fluxes by using the ideas of water mass transformation.
