GC run LTER20250112S17BGC had a vial set shift on one sheet. This was recorded on the sheet and at data entry. All vials run in sequential order on the GC. This is just for reference in case you want to verify that results line up with sites (but again, this should have been fixed on tech data entry of sampling forms): vial set 5,6,7,8 shifted to slots 9,10,11,12; vial set 9,10,11,12 shifted to slots 17,18,19,20; and, vial set 17,18,19,20 shifted to slots 5,6,7,8.
