| Summary: | :warning: As always, the new terms will be available after a few days as they percolate through the ether :warning: New editors! We're happy to welcome Steven Chong and Mark Schildhauer as co-editors. Using our contribution guidelines, they'll be adding valuable cryosphere and carbon cycling terms to support their work with DataONE and related projects. Remember, ENVO is a community resource - so please consider joining our editorial team or sending us a pull request from time to time!

Highlights include: Aligning with SWEET over the cryosphere: Monthly Cryohackathons based around Ruth Duerr's extensive work on the Global Cryosphere Watch's vocabularies (and many related vocabularies) have pushed forward ENVO's alignment with ESIP's SWEET resource, using expert input on the cryosphere to do so. We'll soon complete this as a model for future thematic and expert-led semantic alignment. WMO cloud classification: Cloud genera have been added to bolster ENVO's atmospheric content. A range of qualities are now needed to fully axiomatise their morphologies and other characteristics. CMECS: Ongoing work to express the very detailed and comprehensive Coastal and Marine Classification Standard has yielded some ... |
