MITgcm Tutorials

The group has two tutorials for running the MITgcm:

• Tutorial 1: Gravity Wave. This is a good first introduction to MITgcm, and has some good points about troubleshooting the model.
• Tutorial 2: External forcing and ice. This tutorial will introduce you to controlling ice and external forcing. It is a good starting point for running your own MITgcm cases with ice.

For either tutorial it is assumed that you have followed the instructions to Setup the MITgcm.

Getting the code

Download or clone the code from the group gitlab. It's easiest if you clone this into the MITgcm directory tree, then the model will be able to find its source files when you compile the model.
