The first column labels the model. The box size, resolution and duration (in orbits) of the simulations are given in columns two, three and four. The time averaged properties of the turbulence, i.e. the value of $\alpha$ (total stress normalized by the thermal pressure) and the velocity fluctuations along the three spatial (normalized by the speed of sound) appear in the following four columns.
