README.txt – This file. 2. 2006collectionsites.xls – Columns include year of sample collection, larval ID, sampling day of year, larval hatch day (determined by otolith inspection), sample latitude (decimal degree), sample longitude (decimal degree), sample depth (m), sample time of day (hh:mm EDT). 3. 2007collectionsites.xls – Columns include year of sample collection, larval ID, sampling day of year, larval hatch day (determined by otolith inspection), sample latitude (decimal degree), sample longitude (decimal degree), sample depth (m), sample time of day (hh:mm EDT). 4. 2006_and_2007_YP_Chem_Gen_data.xls – File contains 4 tabs with data for each sample group and year (2006 Larvae, 2007 Larvae, 2006 Juveniles, 2007 Juveniles). Within each tab, columns include Fish ID, year of collection, 12 microsatellite loci (85, 78, 41, 109, 55, 110, 96, 60, 65, 49, 81, 99), and 13 otolith microchemical measurements (7Li, 25Mg, 43Ca, 44Ca, 55Mn, 66Zn, 86Sr, 88Sr, 118Sn, 120Sn, 137Ba, 138Ba, 208Pb). Note that: microsatellite data are presented in the form of diploid genotypes, missing microsatellite data are marked with “0”, otolith microchemistry measurements are in units of ug g-1, and that not all larvae and juveniles had otolith microchemistry sampled (missing data are blank).
