Detailed Description

The main file with the class definitions.

Core

This file contains all of the classes for the module. It has the base MITgcm_Simulation class, and all of the subclasses for different types of fields. Each class has methods for taking derivatives and doing useful manipulations. It also has some functions that might be of use.
