We don't use it anymore on the revamped oceanparcels.org website, and when we remove it here in the readme it will be gone from the codebase too. I also aligned the pitch with that on the oceanparcels website --- docs/index.rst | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/index.rst b/docs/index.rst index 754c6d28c9..1f2a4c97e8 100755 --- a/docs/index.rst +++ b/docs/index.rst @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ Parcels documentation ===================== -Welcome to the documentation of Parcels. **Parcels** (Probably A Really Computationally Efficient Lagrangian Simulator) is a set of Python classes and methods to create customisable particle tracking simulations using output from Ocean Circulation models.
