3.7 Tutorials

This is the first in a series of tutorials describing example MITgcm numerical experiments. The example experiments include both straightforward examples of idealized geophysical fluid simulations and more involved cases encompassing large scale modeling and automatic differentiation. Both hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic experiments are presented, as well as experiments employing Cartesian, spherical-polar and cube-sphere coordinate systems. These ``case study'' documents include information describing the experimental configuration and detailed information on how to configure the MITgcm code and input files for each experiment.
