25      <p>The MITgcm (MIT General Circulation Model) is a numerical model for      <p>The <b>MITgcm</b> (<b>MIT</b> <b>G</b>eneral <b>C</b>irculation
26        studying the ocean and atmosphere. It is capable of simulating these        <b>M</b>odel) is a numerical model designed for study of the
27        fluids at a wide range of scales and can resolve many different        atmosphere, ocean, and climate. Its non-hydrostatic formulation
28        processes. It has a non-hydrostatic capability (Marshall et al., JGR 1997a        enables it to simulate fluid phenomena over a wide range of
29        &amp; b) and uses the finite volume method to accurately represent the        scales; its adjoint capability enables it to be applied to
30        bottom boundary position (Adcroft et al., MWR 1998).<br /><br /></p>        parameter and state estimation problems. By employing fluid
31          isomorphisms, one hydrodynamical kernel can be used to simulate

68            A new movie by Dimitris Menemenlis and Chris Henze shows ice dynamics
69            over the North Pole. The viscous-plastic behavior of ice sheets subject
70            to wind forcing and ocean currents can be clearly seen in the
71            translucent ice-sheet. The movie can be downloaded from <a

73            pages with summary information regarding MITgcm simulations being

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