 +====== About IPRT ====== 
 +    
 +The **International working group on Polarized Radiative Transfer** (IPRT)
 +has been initiated in June 2011. Its objectives include: 
 +  * compare and improve polarized radiative transfer models
 +  * provide benchmark results
 +  * develop publically available codes
 +  * provide information about free codes
 +  * provide input data (scattering matrices, BPDFs)
 +  * bring community together (workshops, ...)
 +

 +**Phase III of the Model Intercomparison Project Has Begun**
 +
 +We are excited to announce the launch of Phase III of the model intercomparison project. This phase focuses on polarized radiative transfer modeling in fully one-dimensional geometry.
 +
 +A comprehensive set of test cases has been defined and is available [[intercomparisons:intercomparisons|here]]. We encourage you to contribute your model results!
 +
 +As with previous phases, we will compile and publish benchmark results to support the broader research community.
