 - `aggregate_temporal` and `aggregate_temporal_period`: Clarified that the process throws a `DimensionNotAvailable` exception when no temporal dimension exists.
 - `aggregate_temporal_period`: Removed unused exception `DistinctDimensionLabelsRequired`
 - `aggregate_temporal_period`: Clarified that the definition of weeks follows ISO 8601
+- `cummax`, `cummin`, `cumproduct`, `cumsum`: Clarified the descriptions around the `ignore_nodata` parameter.

 - `between`: Clarify that `null` is passed through.
 - `eq` and `neq`: Explicitly set the minimum value for the `delta` parameter.
