We are using the vertically uniform, latitude-dependent background diffusivity, described in Danabasoglu et al., 2012 (HORIZ_VARYING_BACKGROUND = True) with a Prandtl number = 5. However, because we are also setting KD = 2.0E-05 (background diapycnal diffusivity) and KV = 1.0E-04 (background kinematic viscosity), the "final" background is the combination of the latitude-dependent plus KV or KD. We only want the former and, therefore, must set KD = KV = 0.0.
