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
32  <!--        flow in both the atmosphere and ocean.</p>

68            over the North Pole. The viscous-plastic behavior of ice sheets subject
69            to wind forcing and ocean currents can be clearly seen in the
70            translucent ice-sheet. The movie can be downloaded from <a

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