 <p>The table lists formatted database output parameters. The parameters define variables that are outputted from simulation and file types and formats of data as well as options for post-processing.</p>
 <p>- <code>format</code> specifies the choice of the file format of data file outputted by MFC by an integer of 1 and 2. <code>format</code> $=$ 1 and 2 correspond to Silo-HDF5 format and binary format, respectively.</p>
 <p>- <code>precision</code> specifies the choice of the floating-point format of the data file outputted by MFC by an integer of 1 and 2. <code>precision</code> $=$ 1 and 2 correspond to single-precision and double-precision formats, respectively.</p>
-<p>- <code>parallel_io</code> activates parallel input/output (I/O) of data files. It is highly recommended to activate this option in a parallel environment. With parallel I/O, MFC inputs and outputs a single file throughout pre-process, simulation, and post-process, regardless of the number of processors used. Parallel I/O enables the use of different number of processors in each of the processes (i.e. simulation data generated using 1000 processors can be post-processed using a single processor).</p>
-<p>- <code>file_per_process</code> deactivates shared file MPI-IO and activates file per process MPI-IO. The default behaviour is to use a shared file. File per process is usefull when running on 10's of thousands of ranks.</p>

 <p>The table lists acoustic source parameters. The parameters are optionally used to define a source plane in the domain that generates an acoustic wave that propagates in a specified direction normal to the source plane (one-way acoustic source). Details of the acoustic source model can be found in <a href="references.md#Maeda17">Maeda and Colonius (2017)</a>.</p>
