Note: Munsell and WCS coordinates for stimulus palette. The leftmost column and the top row give the WCS coordinates for lightness and hue respectively. The rightmost column and the bottom two rows give the Munsell coordinates for Value and Hue, respectively. Entries in the body of the table show the corresponding Munsell Chroma numbers. (With regard to the A and J rows, there are no Munsell hues at the extremes of Value (lightness): 9.5 (white) and 1.5 (black).)
