Hello Bryan,
In the MODIS/VIIRS ST meeting a few days ago you mentioned that a bug in bbw values led to them being a few nm off. Are the values available here now OK/corrected:
https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/reprocessing/r2009/sources/water_coef.txt
In particular, I'm using values as given in the example below. Are these the corrected ones or the old ones that need correcting?
%/fields=wavelength,aw,bw
%/units=nm,m^-1,m^-1
%/end_header
440.00 0.00635000 0.00501629
441.00 0.00659592 0.00496773
442.00 0.00684325 0.00491975
443.00 0.00706914 0.00487235
which as of now are the same as in the file linked above.
Thanks a lot for your time!

Correct bbw values
Tiho,
The values in the file are fine, the issue was a bug in the code that reads the ascii file. The file had a few lines that were 'comments' but not recognized as comments by the code, so a shift occurred in reading the values into the defined array.
