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

      A new movie by Dimitris Menemenlis and Chris Henze shows ice dynamics
      over the North Pole. The viscous-plastic behavior of ice sheets
      subject wind forcing and ocean currents can be clearly
      seen in the translucent ice-sheet. The movie can be downloaded 
      from <a href=movies/ice_03.mpg> here</a> (this one is 91MB!).
      A set of web pages with summary information regarding MITgcm simulations
      being carried out in the ECCO high resolution global ocean state 
      estimation initiative can be found <a href=http://ecco.jpl.nasa.gov/cube_sphere>

          A spectacular movie by Chris Henze of NASA AMES beautifully captures an 
          eddy permitting expanded cube sphere MITgcm simulation being carried out, 
          as part of the <a href=http://www.ecco-group.org>ECCO</a> project, by 
          Dimitris Menemenlis and others at JPL with help from core MITgcm team members 
          and staff from NASA AMES. The animation 
          shows the speed of ocean currents at 15m depth from the simulation, it can be 
          downloaded <a href=news/cube_6.mpg>here</a> (its 47MB 
          but worth waiting for!). A second animation with different perspectives and 
          rotation can be downloaded <a href=news/cube_7.mpg>here</a>.
          As described <a href=news/agu_2004/menemenlis_et_al.pdf>here</a> Dimitris Menemenlis
          will be presenting aspects of this calculation at AGU in Portland.
