# Action spectrum for damage to eggs and larvae of northern anchovy. # Spectrum suggested by: # J.H. Hunter, J.H. Taylor, and H.G. Moser, # "Effect of ultraviolet irradiation on eggs and larvae of the northern # anchovy, Engraulis mordax, and the pacific mackerel, Scomber japonicus, # during the embryonic stage", Photochemistry and Photobiology, 29, 325-338, 1979. # Parameterization based on: # R.C. Smith, and K.S. Baker, # "Assessment of the infouence of enhanced UV-B on marine primary production", # In: The Role of Solar Ultraviolet Radiation in marine Ecosystems, edited by J. Calkins, # pp. 509-537, Plenum Publishing Corporation, New York, 1982. # The action spectrum A is based on Table 1 of Smith and Baker 1982, # column head "DNA (Hunter)", and was parameterized by the exponential function: # A = exp( 61.1381 - 0.21551 * w ) # where w is wavelength in nm. # Dose rates derived with this action spectrum are part of NSF UV database 3 and # are labeled "Hunter". # The integration range is 290 - 340 nm # The Hunter et al. reference suggests that the action spectrum describes # effect per energy unit. 289.99 1e-50 290 0.256712114 291 0.20694339 292 0.166823318 293 0.134481317 294 0.108409452 295 0.087392134 296 0.070449439 297 0.056791421 298 0.04578128 299 0.036905673 300 0.029750778 301 0.023983001 302 0.019333421 303 0.015585255 304 0.012563745 305 0.010128014 306 0.008164498 307 0.006581649 308 0.005305666 309 0.004277058 310 0.003447865 311 0.002779428 312 0.002240581 313 0.0018062 314 0.001456033 315 0.001173752 316 0.000946197 317 0.000762758 318 0.000614882 319 0.000495675 320 0.000399579 321 0.000322112 322 0.000259665 323 0.000209323 324 0.000168742 325 0.000136028 326 0.000109656 327 8.83972E-05 328 7.12597E-05 329 5.74446E-05 330 4.63078E-05 331 3.73301E-05 332 3.00929E-05 333 2.42588E-05 334 1.95558E-05 335 1.57645E-05 336 1.27082E-05 337 1.02445E-05 338 8.2584E-06 339 6.65734E-06 340 5.36669E-06 340.01 1e-50
