This page provides online access to the AERCOMP program developed by Rublev, 1994. It makes possible to obtain the integrated optical properties, i.e.the extinction coefficient, the single scattering albedo, the asymmetry factor, and the normalization factor of a non-cloudy atmospheric aerosol composed by the user from basic aerosol constituents.

    The user should fill up the input fields of Table 1 (particle number concentrations (in particles per cm³) of the basic aerosol constituents- 0 denotes that a corresponding constituent is absent in the aerosol of interest) and click the Submit button.
    The program outputs the results of calculations on standard output (screen) with detailed description of the data format.
    Note that the aerosol integrated optical properties are calculated at the fixed values of wavelengths stored in the lm_sh.dat  file. For computations at user-defined values of wavelengths as well as for computations of the aerosol phase function, one should install the AerComp FORTRAN program and the associated files  on the user's host following the directions in the GEISA-aerosol sub-database section.
