Abstract
We demonstrate a simple method to quickly spin up (equilibrate) the temperature field of a turbulent idealised primitive equation ocean gyre model. We make use of the assumption that both velocity fields and non-linear eddy advection terms equilibrate on a shorter timescale than tracer fields.
