Dear Luca, Christiane

For consistency with other names, these would be
  aerosol_asymmetry_parameter_of_atmosphere_layer
  atmosphere_aerosol_asymmetry_parameter
although (as I've said before) I think maybe we should (for all such names)
just have the second variant, and distinguish between them by the presence or
absence of a vertical coordinate variable.

Cheers

Jonathan
