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