How to plot <w'T'> as a function of 'z' from WTT?

I want to plot the vertical heat flux (in m-degC/s) as a function of depth. The variable WTT in POP output has units degC/s. How do I get the flux from this quantity?

The equation for WTT is
WTT(k) = W_TOP_FACE(k) * TEMP_TOP_FACE(k) / dz(k)
To get vertical heat flux, multiply WTT by dz.
