! mass. NIFA is mainly summarized over five dust bins and NWFA over the
! other 10 bins. The parameters besides each bins are carefully tuned
! for a good performance of the scheme.
!
! The fields for the last index of the aerfld array
! are specified as below.
! 1: dust bin 1, 0.1 to 1.0 micrometers
! 2: dust bin 2, 1.0 to 1.8 micrometers
! 3: dust bin 3, 1.8 to 3.0 micrometers
! 4: dust bin 4, 3.0 to 6.0 micrometers
! 5: dust bin 5, 6.0 to 10.0 micrometers
! 6: sea salt bin 1, 0.03 to 0.1 micrometers
! 7: sea salt bin 2, 0.1 to 0.5 micrometers
! 8: sea salt bin 3, 0.5 to 1.5 micrometers
! 9: sea salt bin 4, 1.5 to 5.0 micrometers
! 10: sea salt bin 5, 5.0 to 10.0 micrometers
! 11: Sulfate, 0.35 (mean) micrometers
! 15: water-friendly organic carbon, 0.35 (mean) micrometers

! Bin densities are as follows:
! 1: dust bin 1: 2500 kg/m2
! 2-5: dust bin 2-5: 2650 kg/m2
! 6-10: sea salt bins 6-10: 2200 kg/m2
! 11: sulfate: 1700 kg/m2
