       The anelastic approximation allows for a density decrease with height. The density is however still horizontally and temporally constant. The vertical profile of the density is computed based on the [#surface_pressure surfaces_pressure] and the vertical profile of the potential temperature. The anelastic approximation requires [#momentum_advec momentum_advec] = "ws-scheme". Furthermore, [#conserve_volume_flow conserve_volume_flow] = .TRUE. is not supported.\\\\
 
-Note, that the default flux representation for input and output depends on the approximation. For details, please see [#flux_input_mode flux_input_mode] and [#flux_output_mode flux_output_mode]. Be aware that fluxes that are given e.g. by parameter [#surface_heatflux surface_heatflux] are interpreted differently by default. In case of Boussinesq approximation, the flux is interpreted as a kinematic flux, in the anelastic case as a dynamic flux, which means that you need to adjust {{{surface_heatflux}}} (and other surface fluxes) depending on the approximation that you have chosen. \\\\
