58           News is back by popular request. New advection schemes are currently
59           being tested. Some preliminary results from the new schemes can be seen

63           The plots show a tracer being transported and stretched in the
64           MITgcm advect_xz verification test. Both new schemes (OS7MP
65           and Prather second-order scheme with limiting) have very low implied
66           diffusivity.
67           We are currently evaluating the
68           schemes to assess their implied diffusivity, with a bottle of
69           Jean-Michel's favorite Belgian
70           beer going to the the least diffusive scheme - watch this space!

75           A short article entitled
76           "NASA Supercomputer Improves Prospects for Ocean Climate Research"
77           in the current EOS (volume 86, number 9, March 1 2005)
78           gives a succinct overview of some of the advanced high-resolution
79           state-estimation work being undertaken with MITgcm by members
80           of the ECCO consortium. The article describes
81           ground-breaking computational
82           technologies that have enabled this work and outlines the future goals of
83           this next generation planetary scale assimilation initiative. A pdf containing
