25 <p>The <b>MITgcm</b> (<b>MIT</b> <b>G</b>eneral <b>C</b>irculation
26 <b>M</b>odel) is a numerical model designed for study of the
27 atmosphere, ocean, and climate. Its non-hydrostatic formulation
28 enables it to simulate fluid phenomena over a wide range of
29 scales; its adjoint capability enables it to be applied to
30 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>

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

82 A spectacular movie by Chris Henze of NASA AMES beautifully captures an
83 eddy permitting expanded cube sphere MITgcm simulation being carried out,
84 as part of the <a href=http://www.ecco-group.org>ECCO</a> project, by
85 Dimitris Menemenlis and others at JPL with help from core MITgcm team members
86 and staff from NASA AMES. The animation
87 shows the speed of ocean currents at 15m depth from the simulation, it can be
88 downloaded <a href=news/cube_6.mpg>here</a> (its 47MB
89 but worth waiting for!). A second animation with different perspectives and
90 rotation can be downloaded <a href=news/cube_7.mpg>here</a>.
91 As described <a href=news/agu_2004/menemenlis_et_al.pdf>here</a> Dimitris Menemenlis
92 will be presenting aspects of this calculation at AGU in Portland.
93 A list of some other AGU 2004 presentation abstracts related to MITgcm can be
94 found <a href=news/agu_2004>here</a>.

105 on the platforms being tested and detailed information on the status
106 of individual regression tests can be viewed from links on the test
107 page. <br /><br />
