@@ -43,9 +60,42 @@ EAQ applies to the following age contexts within Collection Objects:
 
 - **Absolute Age**  
   Computes a range using: AbsoluteAge + AgeUncertainty to AbsoluteAge – AgeUncertainty

 - **Paleo Context**  
 Bound by `ChronosStratID` (and optionally `ChronosStratEndID`). The system determines the widest combined range across both IDs using start/end values.
