Pigment list.

<p>Pigments with abbreviations (Abbrev) used for the modified Gaussian Peak Spectra (GPS) method described in this paper. Specific absorption coefficients (Abs. Coef; L g^-1 cm^-1) and corresponding absorbance peaks (Abs. Peak; nm) are given. The HPLC column indicates if a standard for the pigment was included in the HPLC analysis of the sample</p><p>L: lake samples</p><p>S: sediment</p><p>C: cultures.</p><p>Pigments (code) are identified as follows:</p><p>* = “core” set</p><p>c = culture specific set (<i>Chlamydomonas</i></p><p>p = Planktothrix</p><p>f <i>= Cryptomonas</i></p><p>Pigments not included in the final “core” set (/) due to high error rates.</p><p>Pigment list.
