  Dear Mr. Adrian,
  Yes, I posted my question to amber list only. Thanks alot for your kind
reply.
  But the doubt still remains the same : If the Gaussian are added to the
PES then how we have the measures of FES from the metadynamics simulation.
  The reconstructed surface should be the PES not FES.
Thank you in advance.
