NOTES			 
All data were obtained by the data authors for the following conditions:
water - quadruple distilled
temperature - 25 °C
method - transmission measurement


The absorption coefficient reported by the data authors assumed a negative value for a number of wavelengths.			 
In the CALC column, the negative values are replaced by Jonasz M. by the average of the preceding and the following values.			 
That procedure was repeated if the result was also negative until the outcome became positive.			 
			 
Data have been rescaled by Jonasz M. to wavelength in µm and to the natural-logarithm-based absorption coefficient. 
			 
Each column is separated by a TAB - when you import the file into a spreadsheet all column headings should be aligned with the numbers.
