| 20 | 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 1997a & b) and uses | 
| 24 | the finite volume method to accurately represent the bottom boundary position | 
| 25 | (Adcroft et al., MWR 1998). |
