1/ Gentlemen Agreement

The origin of the module used in publication must be appropriately acknowledged and referenced.

Module's users shall establish direct contacts with the developper.

2/ How to use the module

First execute the makefile (if necessary, change the compilation options).

The module computes the exctinction coefficient, the single scattering albedo, and the asymetry 
parameter at 6 wavelength: 0.185-0.25-0.44-0.69-1.19-2.38-4.00 um
It has to be done for each aerosol mode.

INPUTS:

Median diameter for the aerosol lognormal number distribution in um
Standard deviation for the aerosol lognormal distribution
Mass of black carbon in ug.m-3
Mass of primary organic carbon in ug.m-3
Mass of nitrate in ug.m-3
Mass of ammonium in ug.m-3
Mass of sulfate in ug.m-3
Mass of water in ug.m-3
Mass of secondary organic aerosol in ug.m-3
Mass of dust in ug.m-3

OUTPUTS:
The outputs are in the following shape:
 b in Mm-1    b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6   
 SSA   w1 w2 w3 w4 w5 w6    
 Asymetry parameter   g1 g2 g3 g4 g5 g6
