 The file contains the following timeseries quantities (the first column gives the name of the quantities as used in the netCDF file):\\\\
 ||='''Quantity name''' =||='''Meaning''' =||='''Unit''' =||
-||E ||Total (resolved and subgrid-scale) kinetic energy of the flow ||m^2^/s^2^ (normalized with respect to the total number of grid points) ||
-||E* ||Resolved-scale kinetic energy of the flow ||m^2^/s^2^ (normalized with respect to the total number of grid points) ||
-dt
-        Time step size (in s).
-u*      Friction velocity (in m/s) (horizontal average).
-w*      Vertical velocity scale of the CBL (in m/s) (horizontal average)
-th*     Temperature scale (Prandtl layer), defined as w"pt"0 / u* (horizontal average) (in K).
-umax
-        Maximum u-component of the velocity (in m/s).
-vmax
-        Maximum v-component of the velocity (in m/s).
-wmax
-        Maximum w-component of the velocity (in m/s).
-div_old
-        Divergence of the velocity field before the pressure solver has been called (normalized with respect to the total number of grid points) (in 1/s).
-div_new         Divergence of the velocity field after the pressure solver has been called (normalized with respect to the total number of grid points) (in 1/s).
-z_i_wpt         Height of the convective boundary layer (horizontal average) determined by the height of the minimum sensible heat flux (in m).
-z_i_pt  Height of the convective boundary layer (horizontal average) determined by the temperature profile, following the criterion of Sullivan et al. (1998) (in m).
-w"pt"0  Subgrid-scale sensible heat flux at k=0 (horizontal average), constant within Prandtl-layer (in K m/s).
-w"pt"   Subgrid-scale heat flux (horizontal average) for z = zw(1) (in K m/s).

+Additionally, the user can add his own timeseries quantities to the file, by using the user-interface subroutines {{{[[../userint/int#user_init|user_init]]}}} and {{{[[../userint/int#user_statistics|user_statistics}}}. These routines contain (as comment lines) a simple example how to do this.\\\\
+Time series data refers to the total domain, but time series for subdomains can also be output (see [#statistic_regions statistic_regions]). However, the following time series always present the values of the total model domain (even with output for subdomains): ''umax, vmax, wmax, div_old, div_new.''
