347    Chapter 3
348    --------
349    
350    Almost all of the 'math mode' text is dropped down as subscripts
351    
352    3.1 - don't need a link to the outside of the document (remove it)
353        - link to htdig is broken
354    
355    3.2.1 - link at bottom to source code points to section 3.2.1
356       (ie, to itself) - link should point to cvs code archive
357    
358    3.2.2.1  - ('upgrading from an earlier version') belongs under
359          the cvs part, ie, should be 3.2.1.1
360    
361    3.3 - remove reference to 'diags' section under MITgcm
362        - remove reference to 'exe' and 'bin' sections also
363          (remove the .cvsignore file under these directories in cvs)
364        - add a 'jobs' section, and a description as examples of run scripts
365        - add 'lsopt', 'optim' and 'tutorial examples' with brief descriptions
366        - under 'tools' add a reference to 'build_options'. refer to the 'optfiles'
367        - under 'tools' the adjoint points to section 5 - this is now section 8
368          (but should be a floating reference)
369        - under 'utils' add a reference to exch2 - stuff for different resolutions
370        - the description of the pkg section refers directly to
371          section 3. should be section 6 (actually should be a floating reference)
372    
373    3.4 - refer to sections 3.8 - 3.18 (now says 3.8 - 3.10)
374    3.4.1 - links to the following experiments don't exist or are broken:
375              exp2 - should link to section 3.9
376              hs94.cs-32x32x5 - link to section 3.12
377              add 'convection' to the list, link to section 3.13
378              add 'plume on slope` to the list, link to section 3.14
379              add '??' link to section 3.15
380              add 'dic_example on slope` to the list, link to section 3.16
381              add '??' link to section 3.17
382              add 'offline' and link to section 3.18
383              clean up others and make links where they are needed
384    3.4.2 - text suggests to see section 2 for details about what is in the 'code'
385            and 'input' directories - should refer to the examples in this section
386          - add 'build' bullet - this is where the model is compiled and exectuable lives
387    
388    3.5 - add some little text when talking about 'optfiles' to refer to the tools/build_options
389          as the place where they live (add a link?)
390    
391    3.6.1 - Add some general 'approach' text - ie, output is controlled either by the
392            'data' file in the input directory or by the data.[pkg name] file for any
393            package running. And there is some default behavior when the 'state' dumps
394            are written.
395    3.6.1.2 - needs to be moved to inside section 3.6.2
396    
397    All the 'overview' sections need some reference to the name of the experiment in
398    the verification directory
399    
400    3.10 - in title, 4 degrees - degree symbol is a subscript, not a superscript
401         - is this experiment in the list from section 3.4???
402    3.10.3.1 - refers to figures and equations, links are broken
403    
404    3.11.3.2 - line 43: link to equation is broken
405             - line 51-53: link to equation is broken
406             - there is some mess of text hanging around the end of this section. remove? reformat?
407    
408    3.12.4.1 - line 34 - link to equation is broken
409             - lines 60,61 - 1st (take out the 'r' in the superscript)
410    
411    3.13.2 - link to theta-equation is broken
412    3.13.5.4 -- ALL of the bold links to variable names are broken
413                line 34: link to equation is broken
414    
415    3.15.1 - reference to 'fourth experiment' should be removed
416    
417    3.16.4 - strange formatting, presence of '>' symbols - remove them
418    
419    3.17.3 - unknown verification directory pointed to - also: no link from list in sec 3.4
420    3.17.3.1 - nothing filled in under file input/data - needs description
421    
422    3.18.2 - point to section 2 for details - need hyperlink
423    
424    3.19.1 - text (2 places) says that section 3.5 called for compile in 'input' directory - not true!
425             section 3.5 has the 'build' directory in the example
426    
427    3.20.1 - link to doc at end of section points to this section
428    3.20.2 - link to doc at end of section points to this section
429    
430         offline - duplicate inputs, what is it, tidy up cfc v.
431                   other offline. JM thinks these need tidying up.

     - add a 'jobs' section, and a description as examples of run scripts  
     - add 'lsopt', 'optim' and 'tutorial examples' with brief descriptions  
     - under 'tools' add a reference to 'build_options'. refer to the 'optfiles'  
     - under 'tools' the adjoint points to section 5 - this is now section 8  
       (but should be a floating reference)  
     - under 'utils' add a reference to exch2 - stuff for different resolutions  
     - the description of the pkg section refers directly to  
       section 3. should be section 6 (actually should be a floating reference)  
   
 3.4 - refer to sections 3.8 - 3.18 (now says 3.8 - 3.10)  
 3.4.1 - links to the following experiments don't exist or are broken:  
           exp2 - should link to section 3.9  
           hs94.cs-32x32x5 - link to section 3.12  
           add 'convection' to the list, link to section 3.13  
           add 'plume on slope` to the list, link to section 3.14  
           add '??' link to section 3.15  
           add 'dic_example on slope` to the list, link to section 3.16  
           add '??' link to section 3.17  
           add 'offline' and link to section 3.18  
           clean up others and make links where they are needed  
 3.4.2 - text suggests to see section 2 for details about what is in the 'code'  
         and 'input' directories - should refer to the examples in this section  
       - add 'build' bullet - this is where the model is compiled and exectuable lives  
   
 3.5 - add some little text when talking about 'optfiles' to refer to the tools/build_options  
       as the place where they live (add a link?)  
   
 3.6.1 - Add some general 'approach' text - ie, output is controlled either by the  
         'data' file in the input directory or by the data.[pkg name] file for any  
         package running. And there is some default behavior when the 'state' dumps  
         are written.  
 3.6.1.2 - needs to be moved to inside section 3.6.2  
   
 3.7 - this section is superfluous - remove it -OR- put the tutorial sections (3.8-3.18)  
       underneath this one and leave the text for 3.7 in place  
   
 All the 'overview' sections need some reference to the name of the experiment in  
 the verification directory  
   
 3.10 - in title, 4 degrees - degree symbol is a subscript, not a superscript  
      - is this experiment in the list from section 3.4???  
 3.10.3.1 - refers to figures and equations, links are broken  
   
 3.11.3.2 - line 43: link to equation is broken  
          - line 51-53: link to equation is broken  
          - there is some mess of text hanging around the end of this section. remove? reformat?  
   
 3.12.4.1 - line 34 - link to equation is broken  
          - lines 60,61 - 1st (take out the 'r' in the superscript)  
607    
608  3.13.2 - link to theta-equation is broken  9. Publications using MITgcm --> "Previous Applications of MITgcm"
609  3.13.5.4 -- ALL of the bold links to variable names are broken     Spall, Gianmaria, Legg, Dewar, Cessi, Cournelle, Follows, Adcroft, etc...
610              line 34: link to equation is broken     (check in support for more names)
   
 3.15.1 - reference to 'fourth experiment' should be removed  
   
 3.16.4 - strange formatting, presence of '>' symbols - remove them  
   
 3.17.3 - unknown verification directory pointed to - also: no link from list in sec 3.4  
 3.17.3.1 - nothing filled in under file input/data - needs description  
   
 3.18.2 - point to section 2 for details - need hyperlink  
611    
612  3.19.1 - text (2 places) says that section 3.5 called for compile in 'input' directory - not true!  10. Under development
          section 3.5 has the 'build' directory in the example  
613    
 3.20.1 - link to doc at end of section points to this section  
 3.20.2 - link to doc at end of section points to this section  
   
      offline - duplicate inputs, what is it, tidy up cfc v.  
                other offline. JM thinks these need tidying up.
