Welcome to the web page of release 1 of MITgcm.

MITgcm 

• can be used to study both atmospheric and oceanic circulation
• has a non-hydrostatic capability
• supports horizontal orthogonal curvilinear coordinates
• has a finite volume treatment of topography
• supports a wide range of physical parameterizations
• has tangent linear and adjoint code maintained alongside the forward model
• can run on your pc, workstation or parallel computer using flexible domain decomposition

Here you can:

• download the code
• access on-line documentation
• follow tutorial examples of the use of MITgcm in the study of atmospheric and oceanic flows
• browse the hyperlinked code
