Notes. The Pearson correlation coefficient (r) is presented, indicating any linear correlation between field-line-integrated parallel electric field and Q (cf. Fig. 5), field-line-integrated parallel current (cf. Fig. 7), and field-line-integrated Ohmic heating (cf. Fig. 11), found in the mid-plane, and between the parallel electric field and Ohmic heating (cf. Fig. 10), found across the three-dimensional volume. The coefficient is found at the times previously analysed, t = 200, t = 325, and t = 400. Those coefficients shown as 1.000 appear so only through application of the standard rounding conventions for three decimal places.
