    <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
        to 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

          A spectacular movie by Chris Henze of NASA AMES beautifully captures an

          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
