! History
! May 2007: ActSim code of M. Chiriaco and H. Chepfer rewritten by S. Bony
!
! May 2008, H. Chepfer:
! - Units of pressure inputs: Pa 
! - Non Spherical particles : LS Ice NS coefficients, CONV Ice NS coefficients
! - New input: ice_type (0=ice-spheres ; 1=ice-non-spherical)
!
! June 2008, A. Bodas-Salcedo:
! - Ported to Fortran 90 and optimisation changes
!
! August 2008, J-L Dufresne:
! - Optimisation changes (sum instructions suppressed)
!
! October 2008, S. Bony,  H. Chepfer and J-L. Dufresne :  
! - Interface with COSP v2.0:
!      cloud fraction removed from inputs
!      in-cloud condensed water now in input (instead of grid-averaged value)
!      depolarisation diagnostic removed
!      parasol (polder) reflectances (for 5 different solar zenith angles) added
!
! December 2008, S. Bony,  H. Chepfer and J-L. Dufresne : 
! - Modification of the integration of the lidar equation.
! - change the cloud detection threshold
!
! April 2008, A. Bodas-Salcedo:
! - Bug fix in computation of pmol and pnorm of upper layer
!
! April 2008, J-L. Dufresne
! - Bug fix in computation of pmol and pnorm, thanks to Masaki Satoh: a factor 2 
! was missing. This affects the ATB values but not the cloud fraction. 
!
! January 2013, G. Cesana and H. Chepfer:
! - Add the perpendicular component of the backscattered signal (pnorm_perp_tot) in the arguments
! - Add the temperature for each levels (temp) in the arguments
! - Add the computation of the perpendicular component of the backscattered lidar signal 
! Reference: Cesana G. and H. Chepfer (2013): Evaluation of the cloud water phase
! in a climate model using CALIPSO-GOCCP, J. Geophys. Res., doi: 10.1002/jgrd.50376
!
! May 2015 - D. Swales - Modified for COSPv2.0
!
! Mar 2018 - R. Guzman - Added OPAQ subroutines
