Contents
This experiment demonstrates use of the offline form of the MITgcm to
study advection of a passive tracer. Time-averaged flow-fields and
mixing coefficients, deriving from a prior online run, are re-used
leaving only the tracer equation to be integrated.
Figure -- missing figure -- shows a movie of tracer being
advected using the offline package of the MITgcm. In the top panel the
frames of the movie show the monthly surface evolution of an initially
local source of passive tracer. In the lower panel, the frames of the
movie show the changing monthly surface evolution where the initial
tracer field had a global distribution.
