The M.I.T. General Circulation Model (MITgcm) Release 1 contains code for |
| 29 |
|
|
simulating a wide variety of ocean and atmosphere problems. The model is |
| 30 |
|
|
compatible with platforms ranging from desktop and commodity |
| 31 |
|
|
cluster x86 systems to high-end multi-processor supercomputers. Minimum requirements |
| 32 |
|
|
are a Fortran compiler (the free g77 compiler is sufficient) and a UNIX like |
| 33 |
|
|
operating system (such as Linux, Solaris, IRIX). |
| 34 |
|
|
<br> |
| 35 |
|
|
<br> |
| 36 |
|
|
A broad span of example problem |
| 37 |
|
|
configurations are included in the release. These examples range from planetary scale |
| 38 |
|
|
circulation simulations of the ocean and atmosphere to high-resolution, small-scale |
| 39 |
|
|
process studies encompassing non-hydrostatic dynamics. In addition to conventional |
| 40 |
|
|
prognostic operation, differentiated forms (both tangent-linear and adjoint) |
| 41 |
|
|
of the MITgcm code can be generated automatically using either the TAMC or TAF |
| 42 |
|
|
automatic differentiation tools. These derivative forms can be used for dynamical |
| 43 |
|
|
sensitivity studies and can also be used, together with appropriate optimisation and |
| 44 |
|
|
control infrastructure, for mathematically rigorous state-estimation and |
| 45 |
|
|
data-assimilation. A seamless interface to the ECCO group optimisation |
| 46 |
|
|
environment is available. |
