 # Diagnostics
 #* Richardson number
-#* APE - requires density to be density anomaly (fix when density is from equation of state)
 #* Q and R
 #* Mixing and Stirring
 #* Energy flux through a plane
 #* Area/Volume of a region meeting a specified criterion
-#* Volume integrals of mapped grids require knowledge of hill (multiple by dx*dy*dz*(1-hill(ii)) instead of dx*dy*dz)
 #* output diagnostics at optional time-steps (to be step in spins.conf)
+# Add additional options to derivatives case file (vortex stretching terms, laplacian)
 # Chains and planes
 # Verbosity flag for outputs
 # Verbosity flag for debugging
 # Increase/Decrease resolution by padding the spectra with zeros
+# Make clean will clean all subdirectories in cases folder
 == Things to improve ==
 # DOCUMENTATION
+#* add a list of papers that have used SPINS
 # I/O in NETCDF
 # Upper boundary condition (not clustering grid points at top)
 # Filter parameters and understanding
-# Mapped grids still use an inverted vertical grid
-# increase the time allotted for dumping
-# random number generator uses the processor rank as a seed, maybe use time and rank?
-# derivative.cpp use spins.deriv.conf (set in Options.cpp, but overwrite in case file);
-# change spins.conf type from FOURIER to PERIODIC
 == Issues ==
