Dear Ashraf and RegCM3 users,

Thanks very much for your email of Mar. 4th. I have got the answer to my question.

Now I have another question to ask you for help. How can I get the vertical concentration distribution of aerosol? It seems that there isn't direct output of vertical concentration distribution of aerosol in CHE* file. There is only the column burden of aerosol.

Thanks very much in advance!

Best wishes,

Su

Dear Su,

Yes, AOD is the column integration of (ext) variable in CHE* file. IF
you used the dust option in RegCM, then you will get the ext* variable
in CHE* which represent the dust. But, if you used more aerosols +
dust, then ext* will be respresented all of the selected aerosols.


With my best wishes,
Ashraf
