The M.I.T. General Circulation Model (MITgcm) Release 1 contains code for |
|
|
simulating a wide variety of ocean and atmosphere problems. The model is |
|
|
compatible with platforms ranging from desktop and commodity |
|
|
cluster x86 systems to high-end multi-processor supercomputers. Minimum |
|
|
requirements are a Fortran compiler (the free g77 compiler is sufficient) |
|
|
and a UNIX like operating system (such as Linux, Solaris, IRIX). |
|
|
<br> |
|
|
<br> |
|
|
A broad span of example problem configurations are included in the |
|
|
release. These examples range from planetary scale |
|
|
circulation simulations of the ocean and atmosphere to high-resolution, |
|
|
small-scale process studies encompassing non-hydrostatic dynamics. In |
|
|
addition to conventional |
|
|
prognostic operation, differentiated forms (both tangent-linear and adjoint) |
|
|
of the MITgcm code can be generated automatically using either the TAMC or TAF |
|
|
automatic differentiation tools. These derivative forms can be used for |
|
|
dynamical sensitivity studies and can also be used, together with appropriate |
|
|
optimisation and |
|
|
control infrastructure, for mathematically rigorous state-estimation and |
|
|
data-assimilation. A seamless interface to the ECCO group optimisation |
|
|
environment is available. |
