Average Kzz-p profiles of the western region (x > 225° and x < 315°), sub-stellar region (x ≥ −45° and x ≤ 45°), eastern region (x > 45° and x < 135°), global anti-stellar region (x ≥ 45° and x ≤ 135°), and polar region (y ≥ 66.565° or y ≤ 66.565°). For comparison, the common estimate of Kzz in the literature (Lewis et al. 2010; Moses et al. 2011) as Kzz=H(z)w2h$\[K_{z z}=H(z) \sqrt{\left\langle w^2\right\rangle_h}\]$ and the 1D fit by Parmentier et al. (2013) as Kzz=5104p105$\[K_{z z}=5 \cdot 10^4 \sqrt{\frac{p}{10^5}}\]$ are shown in each sub-plot. All the sub-plots show regional averages at altered Tint. The fainter the line colour, the lower the Tint value. The purple line shows the global absolute advective Kzz according to Equation (1).
