The commission was founded in 1913 and released an important set of colour standards in 1931- their Colorimetric Standard Observer Model.

 International Whaling Commission Report
In 92/181 of the compiled sightings (50.8% of the total) the whales had been observed underwater; photographs and/or underwater video supported 33 cases (18.2% of the total), with additional photographs and video not matched to particular sightings (total of 103 colour transparencies and 22 colour prints taken underwater; 63 colour prints taken at the surface).
Most sightings of dwarf minke whales in the present study were on or near reefs at the edge of the continental shelf, which are approximately 40-45km from the Queensland coast in the Port Douglas sector (Fig.1) and 50-80km offshore in the Ribbon Reef sector.
In only 16/156 cases were the whales reported in open water away from reefs, in 7/16 cases sightings were west of the reefs over a level sea floor of the continental shelf approximately 30-40m deep.

 In Search of the Miraculous: Peter Wollen on Derek Jarman's Blue
Klein's approach to colour and pigment combined many elements: an obsession with its spiritual meaning, an optical delight in its intensity and granularity, an occult interest in its symbolic interpretation, a fascination with the precious and the antique.
To IKB Klein later added gold leaf, which he had worked with in the same frame-shop, when gilding frams for Savage, and then rose, to complete his colour repertoire, as a tribute to the Rose Cross.
Blue was the colour Jarman saw when eye-drops were put in his eyes in the hope of alleviating his blindness.

All colours lead to associations of concrete ideas… whereas blue recalls only the sea and the sky, and that which is most abstract in tangible and visible nature." In 1960, Klein patented a formula for blue paint, known as International Klein Blue (IKB).
The reduction of colour to the single blue patented by Klein enables pictorial material to play the role of air, of the void, from which – in the artist's eyes – was born the force of the mind and the imagination.
In 1957, he decided to limit his palette to the colour blue alone, for as he said: "Blue has no dimension, it is beyond dimension, whereas the other colours all have one….

CIE is a technical, scientific and cultural non-profit organisation whose primary objective is to provide an international forum for the discussion of all matters relating to the science, technology and art in the fields of light and lighting, and for the interchange of information in these fields between different countries.
At the 15th Session of the CIE held in Vienna, Austria in 1963, agreement was reached on what became known as the 1964 supplementary standard observer, based on colour-matching data obtained using a 10 degree field.
It was also at this meeting that the standard daylight distributions were given special attention with the recommendation that the spectral power distributions of the D illuminants be calculated at any correlated colour temperature required.

 INTERNATIONAL AIR TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION (IATA) AND MONEYED CERTIFICATION: HALIFAX INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
From the United Nations and its system to inter-governmental international relation and diplomacy, the Canadian government relies on lies, colour gang, forgery or falsification, bribery and corruption to get excellent life and system expectancies.
Halifax International Airport is the only airport in 203 countries, which the Publishers have visited and lived to find that the domestic and international air travelers are over 99.98% white during and after seasonal travels.
The purpose is suspected to be in the nature of tactical duping and chronic arm-twisting theft because nothing deprives the so-called Halifax International Airport from posting landing restriction and or diverting all the aircrafts to other airports in Canada.

 Basic principles of compatible colour: The NTSC system (from television) --  Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online encyclopedia you can trust!
Points on any radius of the circle represent all colours of the same hue, the saturation becoming less (that is, the colour becoming less vivid, or more pastel) as the point approaches the central “white point.” A diagram of this type is the basis of the international standard system of colour specification.
Chrominance may be represented graphically in polar coordinates on a colour circle (as shown in the diagram), with saturation as the radius and hue as the angle.
When a colour receiver is tuned to the transmission, the picture signal is recovered in a video detector, which responds to the amplitude-modulated luminance signal in the usual manner of a black-and-white receiver.

 2.2 A standard model of colour
While no model of colour entirely predicts all the colour effects which can be demonstrated in all circumstances, there is an existing colour model which does very well for normal viewing conditions of small patches of colour illuminated by something similar to natural daylight.
A graph of the CIE LUV colour model is shown in Figure 2.
If colour is being used to represent the value of some variable, it is unreasonable if the colour scale shows sudden jumps in one part, and areas of no change in other parts.

 Gradient Design for Model Railway Layouts
The CIE (International Lighting Committee - the worldwide body which defines colorimetry standards) has two models of colour vision, the 2-degree and the 10-degree model.
The other big effect on the perception of colour, which is relative to the colour of the surroundings in which the colour sample is viewed (hence the "change" which lining out can make to a colour), is the nature of the light under which something is viewed.
They are different, and relate to the perception of colour in the eye when the colour sample subtends either 2 or 10 degrees.
