 The Atmosphere data files are produced each main output interval (default: 60 min) and represent the general state of the atmosphere at the given model time.
+These files contain a broad selection of different items from simple meteorological data such as wind speed and air temperature up to detailed information such as plant CO2 fluxes. Using the _AT_ files, most of the processes in the atmosphere can be analysed. However, there are further files concerning the atmosphere dealing with more specific topics such as radiation or pollutant dispersions.
