"TOTAL SUSPENDED MINERAL" mass-specific mineral absorption coefficient, amin*(wavelength) in m^2/gm, for use by IOP routines. These values times the concentration of mineral particles in gm/m^3 give the absoption coefficient of the mineral particles in 1/m. These values are a composite of data in Bukata et al., Optical Properties and Remote Sensing of Inland and Coastal Waters, fig 5.5; and Gallie and Murtha, Rem. Sens. Environ. 39, 103-118 (1992) Table 2, scaled to give 0.1 at 500 nm. Data are for 410-690 nm. WARNING: Extrapolated by eye and splines to 300 and 1000 nm for use in H5.0 Spectrum may be unrealistic in the 300-410 and 690-1000 nm regions wavelen amin* (nm) (m^2/gm) 300.0 0.30000 305.0 0.29679 310.0 0.29338 315.0 0.28977 320.0 0.28599 325.0 0.28204 330.0 0.27793 335.0 0.27367 340.0 0.26926 345.0 0.26471 350.0 0.26000 355.0 0.25514 360.0 0.25012 365.0 0.24492 370.0 0.23953 375.0 0.23394 380.0 0.22812 385.0 0.22204 390.0 0.21569 395.0 0.20902 400.0 0.20200 405.0 0.19465 410.0 0.18725 415.0 0.18011 420.0 0.17358 425.0 0.16800 430.0 0.16357 435.0 0.15990 440.0 0.15643 445.0 0.15265 450.0 0.14800 455.0 0.14212 460.0 0.13541 465.0 0.12844 470.0 0.12178 475.0 0.11600 480.0 0.11152 485.0 0.10809 490.0 0.10529 495.0 0.10273 500.0 0.10000 505.0 0.09681 510.0 0.09329 515.0 0.08966 520.0 0.08616 525.0 0.08300 530.0 0.08036 535.0 0.07817 540.0 0.07629 545.0 0.07461 550.0 0.07300 555.0 0.07137 560.0 0.06978 565.0 0.06830 570.0 0.06701 575.0 0.06600 580.0 0.06534 585.0 0.06502 590.0 0.06503 595.0 0.06536 600.0 0.06600 605.0 0.06693 610.0 0.06809 615.0 0.06937 620.0 0.07070 625.0 0.07200 630.0 0.07320 635.0 0.07434 640.0 0.07548 645.0 0.07668 650.0 0.07800 655.0 0.07949 660.0 0.08110 665.0 0.08276 670.0 0.08442 675.0 0.08600 680.0 0.08746 685.0 0.08879 690.0 0.08999 695.0 0.09106 700.0 0.09200 705.0 0.09281 710.0 0.09351 715.0 0.09411 720.0 0.09461 725.0 0.09504 730.0 0.09540 735.0 0.09569 740.0 0.09594 745.0 0.09614 750.0 0.09630 755.0 0.09644 760.0 0.09654 765.0 0.09662 770.0 0.09669 775.0 0.09675 780.0 0.09679 785.0 0.09684 790.0 0.09689 795.0 0.09694 800.0 0.09700 805.0 0.09708 810.0 0.09716 815.0 0.09726 820.0 0.09738 825.0 0.09749 830.0 0.09762 835.0 0.09776 840.0 0.09790 845.0 0.09805 850.0 0.09820 855.0 0.09836 860.0 0.09853 865.0 0.09870 870.0 0.09887 875.0 0.09905 880.0 0.09923 885.0 0.09942 890.0 0.09961 895.0 0.09980 900.0 0.10000 905.0 0.10020 910.0 0.10041 915.0 0.10062 920.0 0.10084 925.0 0.10106 930.0 0.10128 935.0 0.10151 940.0 0.10174 945.0 0.10198 950.0 0.10222 955.0 0.10247 960.0 0.10272 965.0 0.10298 970.0 0.10324 975.0 0.10351 980.0 0.10379 985.0 0.10408 990.0 0.10437 995.0 0.10468 1000.0 0.10500 -1.0 -1.0000
