Input files for konrad aerosol module

<p># Input files for konrad aerosol module</p> <p>The 1D RCE model konrad is available at<br> https://github.com/atmtools/konrad/</p> <p>These are alternative input files with<br> aerosol radiative properties.</p> <p>They were created and processed by<br> Clarissa Kroll, post-processed by Moritz<br> G&uuml;nther.</p> <p>There is always one file for each month.<br> Extinction in the shortwave (ext_sw),<br> extinction in the longwave (ext_lw),<br> shortwave assymetry factor (g_sw) and<br> shortwave single scattering albedo (omega_sw)<br> must each be specified to konrad, e.g.</p> <p>```python<br> import konrad<br> aerosol = konrad.aerosol.VolcanoAerosol(<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ...,<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; file_ext_lw=&quot;CMIP6/CMIP6_ext_lw_1991-9.nc&quot;,<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; file_ext_sw=&quot;CMIP6/CMIP6_ext_sw_1991-9.nc&quot;,<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; file_g_sw=&quot;CMIP6/CMIP6_g_sw_1991-9.nc&quot;,<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; file_omega_sw=&quot;CMIP6/CMIP6_omega_sw_1991-9.nc&quot;,<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ...,<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; )<br> ```</p> <p>## CMIP6<br> - based on an updated version of the Pinatubo aerosol data set (PADS)<br> &nbsp; Stenchikov et al., 1998, DOI:10.1029/98JD00693<br> &nbsp; Driscoll et al., 2012, DOI: 10.1029/2012JD017607<br> &nbsp; Schmidt et al., 2013, DOI: 10.1002/jame.20014<br> - area-averaged over 23 N to 23 S</p> <p>## EVA<br> - created using the Easy Volcanic Aerosol idealized forcing generator<br> &nbsp; (Toohey et al. 2016, GMD, DOI:10.5194/gmd-9-4049-2016<br> - inputs to EVA were:<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - eruption mass (in TgS) specified in file name<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - eruption latitude: 0 degrees<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - eruption date: June 1991<br> - area-averaged over 23 N to 23 S</p>
