| Summary: | About this release This release features a large collection of classes representing polar and cryosphere-related environments and environmental processes, primarily prepared by @kaiiam. These semantics are in aid of efforts such as the Alfred Wegener Institute's Frontiers in Arctic Marine Monitoring programme. Knowledge was harvested from numerous resources - such as the review by Boetius et al. (2015, Nat Rev Microbiol 13: 677–690) - which are cross referenced in each class. Efforts to align with existing resources have been initiated, e.g.: https://github.com/ESIPFed/sweet/issues/7 Past and ongoing work related to this project is organised in project cryophile. This work has also motivated the general development of the environmental process hierarchy. A number of other requests, such as that for fissures (see #466) are also bundled in this release. As usual, the hyperlinks to the terms will be live once OntoBee runs its import cycle over the weekend; however, the PURLs are valid immediately. To better axiomatise the new classes and enhance existing ones, we have also imported numerous classes from other OBO projects, detailed below. New Terms aeolian transport of snow aeolian transport process atmosphere and water column exposed melt pond atmosphere-exposed melt pond blue ice brine channel formation process brine channel brine rejection from seawater calving of ice from an iceberg channel cirque glacier cold season compaction process continental subsurface zone cryoconite hole cryoconite cryoform depositional process englacial stream erosionally enriched glacial ice erosionally enriched ice explosion process first year ice formation process first year ice fissure water frazil ice formation frazil ice gas emission process geographic basin glacial erosion process glacial ice calving process glacial ice gain glacial ice loss glacial ice glacial sintering glacial transport process grease ice layer hydrocarbon gas emission process ice ablation zone ice floe ice formation process ice gain iceberg calving process ... |
