Links and examples of results from real DieCAST application

DieCAST model's unique combination of rigorously 4th-order-accurate numerics and non-staggered grid results in simulation of realistic eddies, including fronts, frontal eddies, bottom density currents and other fine-scale features using much less resolution than required by other models. Here are some useful links for several applications. We will include brief introduction for each example in the near future.
