The retention times are calculated from the moment the sample is injected in the chromatographic column (IT FLASH or GC INJECTION). In the chromatogram, this corresponds to the first peak observed in time, which is generated by the flash heating of the injection trap of SAM-GC. This time is 610338752.O s (sclk) for GC 1 chromatogram and 610342976.0 s (sclk) for GC 4 chromatogram . The retention times are calculated by subtracting this time, to the times of the peaks maxima. The original TCD chromatograms are available in the file noise.csv.

The unit is counts/sec/sec. There is no baseline correction for this fit. These surfaces are proportional to the amount of the species detected when a peak is eluted. When peaks are co-eluted (over of different peaks), the peaks are fitted using a gaussian function. If the fit does not work, only one surface value is given, corresponding to the sum of the abundances of the species contributing to the peak.
