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. |
