Model output from the 1/48° MITgcm simulation is available at https://data.nas.nasa.gov/ecco/. Technical aspects of the visualization are described in Ellsworth et al. (2017). The MITgcm is described in Marshall et al. (1997 a, b). The 1/48° simulation has resulted in more than 80 science publications (see References).
