from the folder containing your excel file run
the error about Z may be related to the fact that contour is waiting for a missing variable. But a turnaround is to give to the function an array directly (2D in this case).
Please edit the path to your file (remove the square brackets and put your file location).
%% Import the data
[~, ~, raw] = xlsread('[path to your file here]\contour gr.xlsx','Sheet1');
raw = raw(2:end,:);
%% Create output variable
data = reshape([raw{:}],size(raw));
%% Create table
contourgr = table;
%% Allocate imported array to column variable names
contourgr.ksmgcm3 = data(:,1);
contourgr.SmgL = data(:,2);
%% Clear temporary variables
clearvars data raw;
contour(table2array(contourgr));

I cannot see how to do a contour plot of two vectors that do not represent gridded data, since that does not make sense.
However one option could be:
D = readmatrix('contour gr.xlsx');
x = D(:,1);
y = D(:,2);
figure
contourf(x*y.')
.
