DATA OF	
Querry M. R., Cary P. G.,  Waring R. C. 1978. Split-pulse laser method for measuring attenuation coefficient of transparent liquids: application to deionized filtered water in the visible region. Appl. Opt. 17, 3587-3592.	

NOTES		
All DATA have been obtained by the data authors. The water was deionized and filtered. The temperature was 26.4 °C.
The authors measured the attenuation coefficient, c, with a split-pulse (two-pathlengths) transmission method and subtracted from it the calculated molecular scattering coefficient, bm. Hence, the difference c-bm equals a+bp, where a is the absorption coefficient and bp is the particulate scattering coefficient		
		
Data have been rescaled by M. Jonasz (MJC Optical Technology, www.mjcopticaltech.com) to wavelength in μm and absorption coefficient in 1/m. 

Underscore (_) marks the absence of data.		
Each column is separated by a TAB. When you import the file into a spreadsheet all column headings should be aligned with the numbers.
