Thanks for your detailed and speedy reply Harry! Unfortunately, my problem
is still not solved. Here's why...

I have made a .lut file just as you said BUT when I use it in ImageJ, the
1-255 pixels, although defined in color, are not defined in the value of the
chlorophyll a they should represent i.e. pixel =(log10 (chla)+2)/0.015.So,
when I make my image the colors are not calibrated to the function above.
So, how do I assign each pixel (that now has the correct color based on my
.lut file) a value of chl a given the above equation?

Thanks again for your help,
Anne
