Abstract: We prove the global existence of classical solutions to a class of forced drift-diffusion equations with $L^2$ initial data and divergence free drift velocity ${u^u}_{u_{g}e0}subset{L}^{i}nft{y}_{t}BM{O}_x^{-1}$, and we obtain strong convergence of solutions as the viscosity $u$ vanishes. We then apply our results to a family of active scalar equations which includes the three dimensional magneto-geostrophic $$MG$$ equation that has been proposed by Moffatt in the context of magnetostrophic turbulence in the Earth's fluid core. We prove the existence of a compact global attractor ${mathcal{A}^u}_{uge0}$ in $L^2(mathbb{T}^3)$ for the MG${}^u$ equations including the critical equation where $u=0$. Furthermore, we obtain the upper semicontinuity of the global attractor as $u$ vanishes.
