The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Global indirect aerosol effects: a review (2004, unknown): “Lately most major GCMs include also carbonaceous aerosols, dust and sea salt (for state of model development see: AEROCOM model intercom-parison: http://nansen.ipsl.jussieu.fr/AEROCOM/ and Kinne et al., 2003).”
Inferring black carbon content and specific absorption from Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) aerosol retrievals (2005, methodology): “We use a black carbon refractive index of 2 � 1i [ Janzen, 1979 ] and a ammonium sulfate refractive index of 1.53 � 10 � 7 i [Toon et al., 1976].”
Radiative forcing in the 21st century due to ozone changes in the troposphere and the lower stratosphere (2003, background): “ULAQ has a rather weak horizontal transport in the lower troposphere as was recently discussed for the case of aerosols by Kinne et al. [2003]. Differences between sources and remote regions can thus be rather strong in the ULAQ model.”
A method to derive smoke emission rates from MODIS fire radiative energy measurements (2005, background): “However, as mentioned above, aerosol model-derived values for range between 6 and 9 m /g [2], [11], [15], [37].”
