- | Navigate back to the Sites table in the admin page and select a site that you just created. It should | ||
- | take you to a page where all of the information you entered for the site is displayed (and editable; check | ||
- | the entries now to make sure everything is correctly entered). | ||
- | Scroll to the very bottom of the page and you should see a separate section titled ApplicationSite Relationships. Similar the previous discussion about table relations, a site entry can belong to | ||
- | multiple applications. For example, the Boundary Stream Tarn Site (id 4897) from Aaron Putnam et. | ||
- | al.’s production rate calibration in New Zealand is an alpine glacier moraine and also a production rate | ||
- | calibration site. Thus, in each Sites page, users need to specify which application the site belongs to by | ||
- | adding the application(s) in the drop down menus in the Application-Site Relationships section. | ||
- | |||
- | In the BST example shown below, there are two entries listed, one for production rate calibration (id | ||
- | 5) and the other alpine (id 2). | ||
- | |||
- | Be sure to do this for all of the sites you created! And once you have done so, go check the ICED webpage to make sure all of your data entry is correct! The webpage calculates exposure ages using | ||
- | the version 3 calculator, the default production rate and two scaling schemes (St and LSDn). If those | ||
- | calculations do not show up you may have missed a necessary column or made an error in your data entry. | ||
- | If it is an easy fix you can edit any Sites, Samples, or Be10 Al26 Quartz entry directly in the admin by | ||
- | selecting the entry and editing information displayed on the page. | ||
