Bottom reflectance spectrum for "AVERAGE KELP"
Based on measurements between 400 and 750 nm
WARNING: Extrapolated by eye and splines to 300 and 1000 nm for use in HE5
         Spectrum may be unrealistic in the 300-400 and 750-1000 nm regions
Data were taken in coastal California waters
during the CICORE experiment
