Only it would be easiest for me to explain things if it were in Watts per nanometer band. Data from published Scientific Journals is best and this is true for graphs in particular, if tabular data is not readily available (yeh get out the metric rulers and enjoy the eye strain).

It's common enough graph, you just didn't know what you were "looking for".

There should be a few if you Google phytochrome under the Images directory, and just look for the shape. Shape will be a profound factor in the third graph that explains it all, since it's been arround, but Rauber was the first to see it within results like McCree's famous CO2 uptake work.

I'll see if Rauber will post on it in his thread at TY, "Rauber Promises to Consult". He'll be able to break it down more than I can (I mean crud, I never even thought of "Reverse Hiesenburg" affects and such before I sat at circle with this guy.)

Hope the hint helps, only two more steps to go, then you should feel it more.


Take care, Sal.


P.S. You will want to get data from this curve to apply to the next. So do yourself a favor and find a good curve to get your data from, or better still find one of the many published sources for this curve that include the data!
