CIRDLES / Squid

Squid3 is being developed by the Cyber Infrastructure Research and Development Lab for the Earth Sciences (CIRDLES.org) at the College of Charleston, Charleston, SC and Geoscience Australia as a re-implementation in Java of Ken Ludwig's Squid 2.5. - please contribute your expertise!

Getting concentrations into New Reference Material Model #231

Closed AllenKennedy closed 5 years ago

AllenKennedy commented 5 years ago

How do I get U and Th concentrations into a RM model when editing it for the first time? It says there is no data in the table.

This is a bug - the workaround for now is to edit a copy of an existing model. Please note that reference material models are not yet live - their values are not used in the math - the needed values are set currently by editing the expressions (in expression mahager) listined on the left as 'Reference Material Values'. It is our intent to go live with reference material models soon, so please continue to build them in anticipation. The next release (dues soon) - Squidv1.1.0 - will have live models for Physical constants and Common Lead.

For reference materials with multiple published values, is there a way to determine which values are being used?

bowring commented 5 years ago

Note: reference material models are not yet live (used in reduction) . The architecture of these models provides for the user to create their own named and versioned reference material complete with TIMS ratios and uncertainties and concentrations and academic references, etc. The model then calculates the 'apparent ages', which will be used in Squid3 when the models go live. Thus, for each reference material, the user (or community) creates a different model: such as 'Temora Magee" and "Temora GA", etc. These models are then available for general use. The Squid architecture will also provide for importing reference material (and other parameter) models into Squid when they are found in a Squid project file or when simply supplied as an 'xml' model file.

Thus, a direct answer to your question is that one would simply open the model in question and view the ratio and other details.

Note: we are in the process of developing a 'dates only' reference material model that will have only ages and no supporting TIMS ratios to satisfy the transition from Squid2 as mentioned in issue #235.
