The MITgcm (MIT General Circulation
- Model) is a numerical model for
- studying the ocean and atmosphere. It is capable of simulating these
- fluids at a wide range of scales and can resolve many different
- processes. It has a non-hydrostatic capability (Marshall et al., JGR 1997a
- & b) and uses the finite volume method to accurately represent the
- bottom boundary position (Adcroft et al., MWR 1998).
The MITgcm (MIT General Circulation + Model) 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.
