Hi Ed,

Here is what I got so far. Some symbols can't be shown in the plain text
below so I attach the open-office file also. I can give you the page
numbers (PDF file) if you don't like the links in file. Let me know if
you have any question.

Errata:


Links in http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/as of August 6th,
2003



      1. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node13.html first
         sentence of the first paragraph: “inquiring in to” may read
         “inquiring into”.

      2. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node14.html last
         sentence of the first paragraph: “(left hand side of figure
         1.14) and height, $ z$, if we are modeling the ocean (right hand
         side of figure 1.14)” should read “(right hand side of figure
         1.14) and height, $ z$, if we are modeling the ocean (left hand
         side of figure 1.14)”

      3. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node15.html separate
         “at” from strings infront and behind in equations (1.6) and
         (1.7).

      4. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node18.html broken
         link in “and write eq([*]) in the form:” of the third line.

      5. 
http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node18.html#SECTION00234320000000000000 
$\displaystyle \dot{r}=\frac{Dp}{Dt}=\frac{1}{g}\frac{D\phi }{Dt}$ where $ 
p_{hy}$ is the hydrostatic pressure, Change p in Eq. (1.31) to $ p_{hy}$.

      6. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node32.html in
         Figure 2.1: u,v* should read u*,v*.

      7. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node33.html (2.19)
         $\displaystyle \eta^*$ $\displaystyle= $$\displaystyle
         \epsilon_{fs} \left( \eta^{n} +P-E+R \right)- \Delta t\partial_x
         H \widehat{u^{*}}+ \partial_y H \widehat{v^{*}}$ have some
         flauts.

      8. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node36.html in
         Figure 2.4: (theta, S*) and (u, v*) should read (theta*, S*) and
         (u*, v*).

      9. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node39.html Broken
         link in “Once $ {\eta}^{n+1}$ has been found, substituting into
         [*] yields...”

     10. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node46.html Links to
         the codes are all broken, and many thereafter.

     11. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node47.html in
         Figure 2.8 caption: Ac in c) and d) should be Au and Av
         respectively; In context for Fig. 2.8b: DXg, DYg should read
         DXc, DYc; Broken link in “see section [*] for more details” of
         line 2.

     12. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node48.html in
         Figure 2.9: (a) and (b) are the same!

     13. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node49.html Add
         explaination for hFacS.

     14. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node85.html Change
         “% cvs co -d directory -P -r release1_beta1 MITgcm” and related
         context.

     15. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node88.html Change
         “exp1 - Four layer, ocean double gyre. This experiment is
         described in detail in section [*]“ to “exp1 - Four layer, ocean
         double gyre. This experiment is described in detail in section
         3.10”

     16. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node94.html Add more
         explainations for output filename convention, i.e., convention
         for *.000000Itern.???.???.data.

     17. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node95.html either
         change input files or change examples of matlab scripts to make
         them work.

     18. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node103.html the two
         paragraphs are almost the same.

     19. 
http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node107.html#SECTION00493400000000000000 
in section 3.9.3.4 yn should read y.

     20. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node112.html in
         section 3.10.4 first line: verification/exp2/ should read
         vierfication/exp1/

     21. 
http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node112.html#SECTION004104600000000000000 
the sNx and sNy here (=60) are not consistent with the SIZE.h file where 
these two are 30. I suggest change the sNx and sNy in SIZE.h to 60 and set 
nSx and nSy to 1 instead of 2. Thus the beginer can handle the output file 
more easier (i.e. Only one grid file) instead of dealing with tiling 
subgrid outputs (that's where those *.000000iter.???.??? files come from!)

     22. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node113.html this
         section can be deleted since it is redundant.

     23. 
http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node117.html#SECTION004113200000000000000 
for bulleted item Line 30: eosType='POLY3' should read eosType='LINEAR'; 
bulleted item Line 45: 20 mins should read 40 mins (2400s/60=40min);

     24. Sections 3.11.3.5 to 3.11.3.7 are not related to this case and
         should be deleted.

     25. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node124.html the
         first paragraph is not related.

     26. Held-Suarez Atmospheric Simulation at 2.8 degree Resolution.
         Comments: No problem in executon. But the results are
         questionable. I checked the Temperature fields. There are some
         spikelike features embeded in a nevertheless smoothed fields.
         Those values are extremely large (~1027) yet others are in
         general between 3.7 – 3.8 (is this surposed be in K?)

     27. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node126.html
         verification/exp2 should read verification/hs94.128x64x5.

     28. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node127.html Surface
         Driven Convection. Comments: Can't find verification/convection
         directory! I searched the Qsurf.bin file that is exlusively used
         by this case (as described in doc) but couldn't find it. I guess
         it is missing from the package.

     29. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node133.html section
         3.14.6 can be deleted.

     30. Gravity Plume on a Continental Slope. Comments: Successfully
         executed. Although the output figures need some work since the
         grid system is not a regular one.

     31. Centennial Time Scale Tracer Injection. Comments: The whole
         section 3.16 is a copy of case (3), where is the case?

     32. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node145.html the
         first paragraph is similar to the last paragraph of section 4.1.
         Also in it, section 3.8 mentioned is non-related to the context.

     33. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node147.html in
         Figure 4.1 caption: “is written too fit...” should read “is
         written to fit...”.

     34. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node148.html in last
         second sentence: “is also used routinely used on ...” should
         read “is also routinely used on ...”

     35. http://mitgcm.org/dev_docs/online_documents/node151.html in
         section 4.2.4.1: the last sentence: delete “on”.
