+Welcome to our last monthly update for 2021. 
+
+This month so a broad development across all modules:
+
+- A new module `ana4Stats/probAna` is available and is concerned with all things related to probability runs 
+  and it therefore includes a lot of tools for parameter variations as well. This lead to some general improvements
+  regarding filtering and ordering of simulations, both before any simulations are run, as well as for sorting 
+  and filtering results for postprocessing. 
+
+- Some more initial particle distribution stuff was tackled, mainly experimenting on new ideas / improvements.
+
+- One big improvement is related to our unique ID, the so called `simHash`. It now includes input data info 
+  about the DEM, release/entrainment/secondary release scenario names. This avoids a previous issue in which 
+  it was possible to get the same hash for different input values, if those values originated in the input 
+  shape files. Glad this is off the table now...
+
+- In the same area of the code, the process of getting thickness values from configuration or shape file is 
+  now fully documented and fully reproducible.
+
+- The documentation received some substantial update regarding the splitting and merging of particles, as well
+  as an extensive documentation for our bottom friction and operator splitting algorithm.
+
+- The data format for AIMEC inputs and outputs is refactored to use pandas dataframes. This is to make it easier to use,
+  filter, order the outputs of AIMEC.
+
+- We introduced the concept of the `travel angle`, expect some more development/output in this regard. 
+
+- Work is still going on regarding the similarity solution convergence test.
+
+Some fixes that are included now:
+
+- Fix com2AB documentation with ambiguous symbols
+
+- Fix bug in ordering simulation files inside AIMEC
+
+Hope you all had a nice end of the year, and are are excited for the new year to come (at least I am :-) )
+
+Felix
