-This is the first in a series of tutorials describing
-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.

 \section{A Rotating Tank in Cylindrical Coordinates}
 \label{sect:eg-tank}
 \label{www:tutorials}
 
+This section illustrates an example of MITgcm simulating a laboratory
+experiment on much smaller scales than those common to geophysical
+fluid dynamics.

+This example experiment demonstrates using the MITgcm to simulate
+a laboratory experiment with a rotating tank of water with an ice
+bucket in the center. The simulation is configured for a laboratory
+scale on a
+$3^{\circ}$ $\times$ 20cm
+cyclindrical grid with twenty-nine vertical
+levels.

 This example experiment demonstrates using the MITgcm to simulate
 a Barotropic, wind-forced, ocean gyre circulation. The experiment
