[RegCNET] 6 Aerosol AOD distribution

[Yan Libin]

Hi, Dear regcmers,

I made an regcm run including 6 aerosols as follows,

 $
  $chemparam
 idirect   =    2,
 chtrname  =                                'SO2','SO4','BC_HB','BC_HL','OC_HB','OC_HL',
 chtrsol   =  0.20, 0.80, 0.05, 0.80, 0.05, 0.80,
 chtrdpv   = 0.00300,0.00200,0.00025,0.00025,0.00025,0.00025,0.00800,0.00200,0.00025,0.00250,0.00025,0.00250,
 dustbsiz  =  0.01, 1.00,
 $

And attached is figure output of the 6 aerosols total AOD by using sum function in GrADS software.
But the values are between 0.-0.1 which are much less than normal AOD values(0.-1.0, seen as attached MODIS observation output)
Are the simulated values right?
I can't find out which step I was wrong.
Has anyone done similar experiments?
Please give me some advices about this.
Thank you very much in advance.

Regards,
Libin Yan
