 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.

20    This section illustrates an example of MITgcm simulating a laboratory
21    experiment on much smaller scales than those common to geophysical
22    fluid dynamics.

28    This example experiment demonstrates using the MITgcm to simulate
29    a laboratory experiment with a rotating tank of water with an ice
30    bucket in the center. The simulation is configured for a laboratory
31    scale on a
32    $3^{\circ}$ $\times$ 20cm
33    cyclindrical grid with twenty-nine vertical
34    levels.
