Kern and T.K. Rockwell, San Diego State University, \nK.R. Lajoie (US Geological Survey), G.L. Kennedy \n(USGS and Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History), \nand J.F. Wehmiller.  Some samples from existing USGS \ncollections also included. \n\nSamples collected and prepared between 1975 and 1983. \nSamples prepared and analyzed at the University of Delaware, \nNewark DE, Lab PI John F. Wehmiller. Some samples also collected \nand analyzed by J.L. Bada (UC San Diego) and colleagues. \n\nLocality ID = formal or informal name used by collectors \n              and maintained in U Delaware database \nSite name = similar to locality ID; refers to designations \n            in Kern and Rockwell., 1992 \nTerrace names from Kern and Rockwell, 1992 \nAll collection sites are located within the area of the San Diego \n1:100,000 US Geological Survey Topographic Map. \n\nPretreatment: Fragments cut from shell valves; surface cleaning \nwith dental tools; dilute HCl and distilled water wash; air dry \nAA fraction=\"amino fraction\" \nTHAA = total hydrolyzable amino acids; \nFAA = free amino acids (zero hydrolysis time) \nHydrolysis procedure: 6N HCl 22 hours 105 deg C  (for THAA only) \nBleach: No \nInstrumental programming: GC temperature program; HPLC buffer gradient \nBlank corrections: no \nResponse factors: no \nD/L values reported as peak height ratios \nLab Code \nSample ID = identity of specific shell analyzed (samples analyzed \n            at UCSD given identity for use in Delaware database) \nAnalytical method: GC = gas chromatography, used for multiple amino acids; \n                        HPLC used for determination of A/I values \nSubsample ID =  usually the same as sample ID; repeat fragments \n                of same shell will have unique identification \nRatio type = Peak Height ratios used for all results from GC; \n             peak height ratios assumed for all results for HPLC \n\nD/L values are reported as the means of multiple chromatograms, \nusually at least 3.
