The MITgcm (MIT General Circulation Model) is a numerical model for studying | 
| 21 | 
  | 
  | 
the ocean and atmosphere. It is capable of simulating these fluids at a | 
| 22 | 
  | 
  | 
wide range of scales and can resolve many different processes. It has a | 
| 23 | 
  | 
  | 
non-hydrostatic capability (Marshall et al., JGR 1996a & b) and uses | 
| 24 | 
  | 
  | 
the finite volume method to accurately represent the bottom boundary position | 
| 25 | 
  | 
  | 
(Adcroft et al., MWR 1998). |
