| 37 |  |  | The MITgcm (MIT General Circulation Model) is a numerical model for studying the | 
| 38 |  |  | ocean and atmosphere. It is capable of simulating these fluids at a wide range of | 
| 39 |  |  | scales and can resolve many different processes. It has a non-hydrostatic capability | 
| 40 |  |  | (Marshall et al., JGR 1997a & b) and uses the finite volume method to accurately | 
| 41 |  |  | represent the bottom boundary position (Adcroft et al., MWR 1998). <br /> |
