Zonally averaged Ocean Model (ZOM)

ZOM is a zonally averaged Ocean Model based on the closure of Brüggemann et al. 2011 which is able to simulate the zonally integrated transport of a rectangular ocean basin and therefore can be seen as a simple model of e.g. the meridional overturning circulation.
