+ %% a set of pre-configured numerical experiments
+ The full MITgcm distribution comes with a set of pre-configured
+ numerical experiments.  Some of these example experiments are tests of
+ individual parts of the model code, but many are fully fledged
+ numerical simulations. Full tutorials exist for a few of the examples,
+ and are documented in sections \ref{sect:eg-baro} -
+ \ref{sect:eg-tank}. The other examples follow the same general
+ structure as the tutorial examples. However, they only include brief
+ instructions in a text file called {\it README}.  The examples are
+ located in subdirectories under the directory \texttt{verification}.
+ Each example is briefly described below.

+ \subsection{Directory structure of model examples}
+ Each example directory has the following subdirectories:
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item \texttt{code}: contains the code particular to the example. At a
+   minimum, this directory includes the following files:
+   \begin{itemize}
+   \item \texttt{code/packages.conf}: declares the list of packages or
+     package groups to be used.  If not included, the default version
+     is located in \texttt{pkg/pkg\_default}.  Package groups are
+     simply convenient collections of commonly used packages which are
+     defined in \texttt{pkg/pkg\_default}.  Some packages may require
+     other packages or may require their absence (that is, they are
+     incompatible) and these package dependencies are listed in
+     \texttt{pkg/pkg\_depend}.
+   \item \texttt{code/CPP\_EEOPTIONS.h}: declares CPP keys relative to
+     the ``execution environment'' part of the code. The default
+     version is located in \texttt{eesupp/inc}.
+   \item \texttt{code/CPP\_OPTIONS.h}: declares CPP keys relative to
+     the ``numerical model'' part of the code. The default version is
+     located in \texttt{model/inc}.
+   \item \texttt{code/SIZE.h}: declares size of underlying
+     computational grid.  The default version is located in
+     \texttt{model/inc}.
+   \end{itemize}
+   In addition, other include files and subroutines might be present in
+   \texttt{code} depending on the particular experiment. See Section 2
+   for more details.
+ \item \texttt{input}: contains the input data files required to run
+   the example. At a minimum, the \texttt{input} directory contains the
+   following files:
+   \begin{itemize}
+   \item \texttt{input/data}: this file, written as a namelist,
+     specifies the main parameters for the experiment.
+   \item \texttt{input/data.pkg}: contains parameters relative to the
+     packages used in the experiment.
+   \item \texttt{input/eedata}: this file contains ``execution
+     environment'' data. At present, this consists of a specification
+     of the number of threads to use in $X$ and $Y$ under multithreaded
+     execution.
+   \end{itemize}
+   In addition, you will also find in this directory the forcing and
+   topography files as well as the files describing the initial state
+   of the experiment.  This varies from experiment to experiment. See
+   the verification directories refered to in this chapter for more details.
+ \item \texttt{results}: this directory contains the output file
+   \texttt{output.txt} produced by the simulation example. This file is
+   useful for comparison with your own output when you run the
+   experiment.
+ \item \texttt{build}: this directory is where the model is compiled
+   and loaded, and where the executable resides.

+ Once you have chosen the example you want to run, you are ready to
- \input{part3/case_studies/fourlayer_gyre/fourlayer.tex}
+ compile the code.
