[MITgcm-support] global/climate change , transport

[Riema Rachmayani]

dear all,
i have more questions...

does MITcgm contain global/climate, throughflow (transport) input to simulate influence of global/climate change and throughflow to ocean circulation?? or need other sofware to create that input (e.g MM5 software)??

can MITgcm simulate  ecosystem parameters (primary productivity, nutrient, phytoplankton, etc) in ocean ?? or should couple with other software??

thanks,
regards,
rima

Hi, 

Just for this precision:

All the diagnostics which are available in this configuration 
are listed, no exception.
