 # CHANGELOG
 
 
+## v1.0.7 (2024-11-06)
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+* fix(dat-convert): change default conversion behavior to match UM (#94)
+
+Add additional comments to scenarios converted from .DAT files. Change subsequent-stage cavern SG initialization to match UM-documented behavior rather than the undocumented reset-the-SG behavior that was occurring in the FORTRAN version. ([`932b2d1`](https://github.com/sandialabs/sansmic/commit/932b2d1f09bc8fe600f3e0e6ddeb3e43cd293676))
+
+* fix(dat-convert): change default conversion behavior to match sansmic UM (2015) ([`b3fea1c`](https://github.com/sandialabs/sansmic/commit/b3fea1c7eaa7058d91d717c12889c217542c413b))
+
+### Documentation
+
+* docs: Update scenario documentation
+
+Update to include both -depth and -height configuraiton options for brine injection, production, and interface. ([`d28bdf4`](https://github.com/sandialabs/sansmic/commit/d28bdf4254af3d437b1dfd6bcce2372d5ab37d7a))
+
+* docs: update badges ([`0300c09`](https://github.com/sandialabs/sansmic/commit/0300c0959816d5737c35bbddf26ffb035c06989b))
+
+### Release
+
+* release: pull staging into main (#100) ([`6acef4c`](https://github.com/sandialabs/sansmic/commit/6acef4cc0068bd5877b7e4295bd4d9b62e93d73b))
+
+### Testing
+
+* test: rename regression outputs as txt
+
+Rename regression testing output files to be explicitly .txt to avoid filetype confusion. ([`785716d`](https://github.com/sandialabs/sansmic/commit/785716d985f05a47c81d3ac226dce9916dc43f48))
