What is it about?

A new parameterizaiton for heat transport is proposed and validated over wide density ratio range.

Why is it important?

The contribution of thermocline staircases can be included in the ocean models because heat flux through them can be evaluated.

Perspectives

It is expected that the new parameterization should be a generalized representation of the DC heat transport
