When creating a drogue plot, SMS can write out the following statistical information for each particle:

  • The particle’s starting and ending location.
  • The start and end times for each particle in decimals days.
  • The total distance it traveled over the length of the animation.
  • The minimum, maximum, and average velocity at which it traveled.


Be aware that when a particle leaves the domain, it can no longer be tracked so the ending location will be the point at which it left the domain. The user can click the Browse button to set the name of the report file.
