70     The MITgcm ptracers package (see section \ref{sec:pkg:ptracers} for a more complete discussion
71    of the ptracers package and section \ref{sec:pkg:using} for a general introduction to MITgcm
72    packages) provides pre-coded support for a simple passive tracer with an initial
73    distribution at simulation time $t=0$ of $C_0(x,y,z)$. The steps required to use this capability
74    are
75    \begin{enumerate}
76    \item{\bf Activating the ptracers package.} This simply requires adding the line {\tt ptracers} to
77    the {\tt packages.conf} file in the {\it code/} directory for the experiment.
