In the first panel, the Lorentz force summed in each layer of the extrapolations is shown on a log-scale as a function of height. The solid line represents the NLFF model, and the dashed line represents the non-force-free model. In the second panel, this is recast as average acceleration per layer using force and density. Both dependent variables are presented in normalized units.
