10840 Data Set Published / External 74891 Life History Estimates Project In Work 2010 The data set contains bomb radiocarbon dating of otolith and other material used in age validation studies. Some are published and others are a work in progress. See reports or publications for scientific results and contact the Life History Program for status of others. Data reported is from radiocarbon analyses by NOSAMS (National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass Spectrometry facility at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution). Age validation studies.

VARCHAR2 3 LHP_LAB_ID1 VARCHAR2 14 No No Active Identification number used by the Life History Program to link to other records and lab data (1 of 2). VARCHAR2 4 LHP_LAB_ID2 VARCHAR2 17 No No Active Identification number used by the Life History Program to link to other records and lab data (2 of 2). VARCHAR2 5 SPECIES VARCHAR2 27 No No Active Fish species on which the analysis was performed. VARCHAR2 6 MATERIAL_TYPE VARCHAR2 8 No No Active Material type submitted to NOSAMS for radiocarbon analysis. VARCHAR2 7 AMS_PROCESS VARCHAR2 19 No No Active Process used by NOSAMS to liberate carbon dioxide from the sample to form graphite. VARCHAR2 8 NOSAMS_ACCESSION_ID VARCHAR2 11 No No Active Number used by NOSAMS (National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass Spectrometry facility at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution) to record and track submitted samples during radiocarbon anaysis. VARCHAR2 9 F14C VARCHAR2 10 No No Active Fraction Modern is the measured deviation of the 14C/12C ratio from Modern. Modern is defined as 95% of the 14C concentration of the National Bureau of Standards Oxalic Acid I standard (SRM 4990B) normalized to d13C VPDB (-19ppm) in 1950 AD (VPDB = Vienna Pee Dee Belemnite geological standard. VARCHAR2 10 F14C_ERROR VARCHAR2 6 No No Active Analytical uncertainty associated with the F14C (Fraction Modern) measurement (1 standard deviation). VARCHAR2 11 AGE VARCHAR2 7 No No Active Radiocarbon age when applicable (prebomb) or an indication of the post-bomb era (Modern is greater than >1950). VARCHAR2 12 AGE_ERROR VARCHAR2 2 No No Active Analytical uncertainty associated with the Age calculation (1 standard deviation), when applicable. VARCHAR2 13 D13C VARCHAR2 17 No No Active Measurement of carbon-12 to carbon-13 to assess environmental carbon isotope fractionation. VARCHAR2 14 D13C_SOURCE VARCHAR2 12 No No Active Fractionation value for d13C that was either measured or assumed from literature. VARCHAR2 15 D14C VARCHAR2 17 No No Active Report the D14C value as defined in Stuiver and Pollach (1977) as the relative difference between the absolute international standard (base year 1950) and sample activity corrected for age and d13C. The D14C is age corrected to account for decay that took place between collection (or death) and the time of measurement so that two measurements of the same sample made years apart will produce the same calculated D14C result. Collection year must be specified in order for D14C results to be calculated. VARCHAR2 16 COLLECTION_DATE VARCHAR2 10 No No Active Date or year of fish collection. VARCHAR2 17 COLLECTION_LOCATION VARCHAR2 18 No No Active Location of fish collection. VARCHAR2 18 FISH_LENGTH_CM VARCHAR2 6 No No Active Fish length as measured in centimeters (cm). VARCHAR2 19 FISH_LENGTH_TYPE VARCHAR2 6 No No Active Fish length definition in terms of standard length (SL), fork length (FL), or total length (TL). VARCHAR2 20 FISH_SEX_CODE VARCHAR2 1 No No Active Sex determined for the fish specimen. VARCHAR2 21 SCIENTIFIC_RESULTS VARCHAR2 67 No No Active Location of the scientific results for the study when completed (DOI for jounral articles, web address for reports, and other potential links). VARCHAR2 22 NOTES VARCHAR2 31 No No Active Specimen or sample notes that may be pertinent to how the particular sample was handled differently from others in the data set.
