The populationmean spot reflectance (
36、which is also the mean solar reflec-tance of the test surface,) is equal to (95% confidence). Ifthe sample size n is sufficiently large (say, n 30), then thepopulation standard deviation is well approximated by thesample standard deviation s , and the estimate of the samplemean standard error isrs=n
