16  This is the first in a series of tutorials describing  \section[Barotropic Gyre MITgcm Example]{Barotropic Ocean Gyre In Cartesian Coordinates}
17  example MITgcm numerical experiments. The example experiments  %%% \label{www:tutorials}
 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.
