<p>The <b>MITgcm</b> (<b>MIT</b> <b>G</b>eneral <b>C</b>irculation |
| 26 |
|
|
<b>M</b>odel) is a numerical model designed for study of the |
| 27 |
|
|
atmosphere, ocean, and climate. Its non-hydrostatic formulation |
| 28 |
|
|
enables it to simulate fluid phenomena over a wide range of |
| 29 |
|
|
scales; its adjoint capability enables it to be applied to |
| 30 |
|
|
parameter and state estimation problems. By employing fluid |
| 31 |
|
|
isomorphisms, one hydrodynamical kernel can be used to simulate |
| 32 |
|
|
flow in both the atmosphere and ocean.</p> |

A spectacular movie by Chris Henze of NASA AMES captures the eddy permitting |
| 64 |
|
|
expanded cube sphere simulation being carried out by Dimitris Menemenlis and others |
| 65 |
|
|
at JPL with help from core MITgcm team members and staff from NASA AMES. The animation |
| 66 |
|
|
shows the speed of ocean currents at 15m depth from the simulation, it can be |
| 67 |
|
|
downloaded <a href=news/cube_6.mpg>here</a> (its 47MB but worth waiting for!). |
| 68 |
|
|
A second animation with different perspectives and rotation can be downloaded |
| 69 |
|
|
<a href=news/cube_7.mpg>here</a>. |

|
|
As described <a href=news/agu_2004/menemenlis_et_al.pdf>here</a> Dimitris Menemenlis |
| 71 |
|
|
will be presenting aspects of this calculation at AGU in Portland. |
