++ MITgcm is now able to write and (to a lesser extent) read NetCDF files. + The framework (the "MNC" package) has been tested by numerous developers + on literally dozens of machines and, for the past month, has been a + working part of our standard verification suite. We encourage MITgcm + users (especially new users) to try out the MNC package since the model + output is now much easier to read and understand. For further NetCDF + information please see: ++ ++
