MITgcm is freely available to all; we encourage you to download it, use it, give us feedback and help us to improve it. MITgcm

• can be used to study both atmospheric and oceanic circulation
• has a non-hydrostatic capability
• supports horizontal orthogonal curvilinear coordinates
• has a finite volume treatment of topography
• supports a wide range of physical parameterizations
• has tangent linear and adjoint code maintained alongside the forward model
• can run on your pc, workstation or parallel computer using flexible domain decomposition

• access on-line documentation
• download the code
• follow tutorial examples of the use of MITgcm in the study of atmospheric and oceanic flows
• browse the hyperlinked code
