Log-linearized absorption spectra obtained before and after monochromatic irradia-
tion (10 nm band pass) (
left panels
) and difference spectra obtained by subtracting the ln (
a
)
after irradiation from the original spectrum (
right panels
) for SRFA (
a
and
b
; 1 cm optical path
length), Delaware Bay water (
c
and
d
; 5-cm optical path length), and Chesapeake Bay water
(
e
and
f
, 5- and 10-cm optical path lengths). All spectra reported on the
left panels
are the result
of independent experiments.
