Ecological Control of Subtropical Nutrient Concentrations
Multiple-Resource Experiment. (top) Emergent biogeographical provinces, defined by most dominant species, reminiscent of Longhurst (1995) In this article we spotlight recent work by Darwin Project team members Stephanie Dutkiewicz, Mick Follows and Jason Bragg, who have been examining the utility of resource control theory to interpret the relationships between organisms and resources in a global coupled physical-biogeochemistry-ecosystem model built around MITgcm...
2009 research roundup
struggling scientist please cite my papers. To round off the year we have collected a sample of 2009 research articles that involved MITgcm in some way. Lots of interesting work ranging from gas-giant planets to laboratory scale rotating fluid tanks. Take a look...
Overturning Sensitivity in an Eddying Ocean Model
A snapshot relative vorticity (in colors) and pressure (relief) at 100 m depth in a simulation with realistic, though idealized, forcing. The color range spans =B15e-4 s^{-1}. The domain is a simple "notched box" ocean with vertical walls and periodic channel in the southernmost 1200 km. Work by Christopher Wolfe and Paola Cessi at UCSD, in which they investigate the equilibrium response of an eddy-resolving version of MITgcm to variations in the external parameters of diffusivity, wind forcing and geometry, with particular attention to the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) and deep stratification...
