This month we spotlight work from UK researchers led by Ben Bronselaer (formerly of Oxford, now at Princeton) who have been using MITgcm to understand the feedback between mixed-layer partial pressure of carbon dioxide pCO2 and wind stress in the Southern Ocean.
This month we spotlight work from researcher Wlademir Santis (Oceanographic Institute, University of Sao Paulo, Pça. do Oceanográfico, Brazil) and co-authors who have been using MITgcm in work seeking to understand how the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) might vary under ice age conditions.
Happy 2018: Another new year, another research roundup! Best wishes to MITgcmers past, MITgcmers present and MITgcmers yet to come…
This month we spotlight research from researchers at MIT have been using MITgcm to model the interplay between vertical convection and lateral exchange due to baroclinic instability.
This month we spotlight research from a Georgia Tech team who have been revisiting early modeling experiments using MITgcm to take a closer look at oxygen uptake during deep convection.
This month we spotlight a recent multi-institutional study led by Dustin Carroll that has been using MITgcm to explore what controls circulation in tidewater glacier fjords.
This month we spotlight research from a team in New Zealand who have been using the MITgcm-based ECCOv4 ocean reanalysis product to examine how air–sea heat flux and ocean heat transport convergence due to ocean dynamics contribute to variability of upper ocean temperatures around New Zealand.
This month we spotlight research from MIT’s Darwin Project exploring how changes in spatial resolution impact emergent biogeochemistry and phytoplankton community structure in their work using MITgcm and the biogeochemical models they have built to surround it.
This month we turn our attention to scientists working at NASA JPL who have been using MITgcm to examine what sets the thickness of so-called “Winter Water” in a region of the Antarctic off shore from the Pine Island Glacier.
This month we spotlight work seeking to couple the MITgcm with another open-source marine biogeochemistry tool developed and maintained by a consortium involving modelers across Europe and also South Africa.
