title: VISUAL EFFICIENCY--a microcomputer program for the analysis of action spectra.
abstract: A microcomputer program for the analysis of complex action spectra is described. This program can take data gathered in a series of spectral ranges and fit them to a model consisting of multiple pigments, varying pigment concentrations, and absorption before the photosensitive pigment. Chi square and correlation analysis are performed on the final fit.
