"ch.dc" : Chicken Gallus gallus double cone.
"st.dc" : Starling Sturnus vulgaris double cone.
"cf.r" : Canid Canis familiaris rod
"md.r1" : Housefly Musca domestica R1-6 photoreceptor.
"ra.dc" : Triggerfish Rhinecanthus aculeatus double cone.
|
illum |
illuminants. Options are:
"none" : no illuminant data.
"all" : all background spectral data.
"bluesky" open blue sky.
"D65" : standard daylight.
"forestshade" forest shade.
|
trans |
Ocular transmission data. Options are:
"none" : no transmission data.
"all" : all transmission data.
"bluetit" : blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus ocular transmission (from Hart et al. 2000).
"blackbird" : blackbird Turdus merula ocular transmission (from Hart et al. 2000).
|
bkg |
background spectra. Options are: |
plot |
should the spectral data be plotted, or returned instead (defaults to FALSE )? |
... |
additional graphical options passed to plot.rspec() when plot = TRUE . |
Value

(when plot = FALSE
), containing
a wavelength column "wl"
and spectral data binned at 1 nm intervals from 300-700 nm.
