This is the first in a series of tutorials describing |
\section[Barotropic Gyre MITgcm Example]{Barotropic Ocean Gyre In Cartesian Coordinates} |
|
example MITgcm numerical experiments. The example experiments |
|
|
include both straightforward examples of idealized geophysical |
|
|
fluid simulations and more involved cases encompassing |
|
|
large scale modeling and |
|
|
automatic differentiation. Both hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic |
|
|
experiments are presented, as well as experiments employing |
|
|
Cartesian, spherical-polar and cube-sphere coordinate systems. |
|
|
These ``case study'' documents include information describing |
|
|
the experimental configuration and detailed information on how to |
|
|
configure the MITgcm code and input files for each experiment. |
