Scientific paper

The contribution function method used so far to define the effective depth for the formation of absorption lines is discussed and a new definition of the effective depth is proposed. The effective depth is the level where a thin slab having the equivalent optical thickness to the total line absorption is placed so as to give the observed line intensity.
