Units: g.m-2

Definition: Concentration of nitrogen biomass per m² of a seagrass form parameterised to be similar to Halophila ovalis. This form captures light after it has passed through the Zostera seagrass form. The Halophila ovalis form is better adapted to low light conditions than Zostera, having a faster growth rate and lower minimum light requirement. See macroalgae (MA) for elemental ratio and bottom cover.

Hi,
In a dataset, the depth where a sample was taken is described in relative terms. E.G "2 meter above the sea floor", "at the thermocline", "1 meter below the sea surface"

Could a P01 be created for this? I was thinking something like:

Label: Depth [descriptive] of sampling or measuring activity below the sea surface.
Definition: A description of the sampling depth below the surface. Values include "at thermocline", "2 m above the seafloor"

In order to migrate the terms to our new physical entity model, we first need to define the term "Surface elevation" in our parameter entity vocabulary (nvs-vocabs/S06#6) and create records in the datum vocabulary (S20) for each sea surface elevation reference point.
Constraining the P01 preferred label against the new model will mean that the preferred label will change slightly from e.g.
"Surface elevation (UK Admiralty Chart Datum) of the water body by radar water level recorder"
to
"Surface elevation relative to UK Admiralty Chart Datum of the water body by radar water level recorder"

Hi,

I'm working on a dataset that includes average tallies of sea lice (parasitic copepods) per farmed salmon. After some discussion with colleagues, we've decided to report this using a generic "average number of parasites per host fish" as our measurementType.

Creation of a measurementTypeID for "average number of parasites per host" would help with future reporting on these datasets. If one already exists that we might've overlooked, please direct us to a URL.

Thank you!

Definition: Concentration of nitrogen biomass per m² of macrolagae. Macroalgae (or seaweed) grows above all other benthic plants (corals, seagrasses, benthic microalgae). It is parameterised as a non-calcifying leafy algae, with a C:N:P ratio of 550:30:1, and a formulation for calculating the percentage of the bottom covered as 1-exp(-Ω_MA MA). In the model, in the absence of both calcifying macroalgae (particularly Halimeda) and unicellular epiphytes, macroalgae represents the biomass of all seaweeds and epiphytes.

Definition: Concentration of nitrogen biomass per m² of a seagrass form parameterised to be similar to Zostera. This form captures light after it has passed through macroalgae and before it passes through Halophila. This form is better adapted to high light, low nutrient conditions than Halophila as a result of a deeper root structure and being able to shade it. See macroalgae for elemental ratio and bottom cover.

A request has been received for "Directional spreading at spectral maximum of waves on the water body", which is a more generic version of the following terms:
GPSPFS01 Directional spreading at spectral maximum of waves on the water body by Interocean S4 wave gauge
GPSPFA01 Directional spreading at spectral maximum of waves on the water body by waverider

1. Geographic location of human activity specified by classification to a term from the EMODnet Human Activities vocabulary (SDN::HA2)
   • I propose linking this to the P02 "Administrative units" term and we use HA2->P03->P08 mappings for discovery
   • P06 = UUUU
2. Description of habitat by classification to a term from the Marine Strategy Framework Directive broad habitat types (Commission Decision (EU) 2017/848)
   • See SDN:P01::UKMH0405 as a prototype
   • I propose linking this to P02 Habitat Characterisation (HBCH)
   • P06 = UUUU
3. Area of habitat by classification to a term from the Marine Strategy Framework Directive broad habitat types (Commission Decision (EU) 2017/848)
   • I propose linking this to P02 Habitat Extent (HBEX)
   • P06 = UMSQ

We have received a request for the creation of 3 parameters related to coralligenous habitats
The first two parameters :

• . perc_colo_big_100mm_height -> Percentage of colonies equal or larger than 100 mm in height in the studied population (range 0 to 100%).
• . perc_colo_big_7mm_diameter -> Percentage of colonies equal or larger than 7 mm in diameter in the studied population (range 0 to 100%).
  are related only to the red coral Corallium rubrum, since they are parameters to evaluate its conservation status and the lack of poaching impact

The other one:

• . perc_affected_colo -> Percentage of colonies affected by at least 10% of necrosis.
  can be used with all gorgonian species and the bryozoans, so can be related to an habitat of multi-specificic assemblages, in this case coralligenous

The following parameter codes have been added to the NVS on 08/10/2019:
http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P01/current/C49BS013 Concentration of 4-octylphenol {CAS 1806-26-4} per unit dry weight of sediment <2000um
http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P01/current/C50BS013 Concentration of 4-nonylphenol {CAS 104-40-5} per unit dry weight of sediment <2000um

Symbol: SGD

Units: g.m-2

Definition: Concentration of nitrogen biomass per m² of a seagrass form parameterised to be similar to Halophila deciphens. This form captures light after it has passed through the Zostera and Halophila ovalis seagrass form.

Two P01 codes:
TDEOPBF1 Concentration of 2,4'-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane {o,p'-DDD mitotane CAS 53-19-0} per unit volume of the water body [dissolved plus reactive particulate phase]
DDEOPBF1 Concentration of 2,4'-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene {o,p'-DDE CAS 3424-82-6} per unit volume of the water body [dissolved plus reactive particulate phase]
Have been wrongly described as "filtered" in the alternative label and in the description.

It is proposed to correct the alternative label and the description to match the preferred label and be consistent with P01 conventions. If the sample had been filtered it would have had a preferred label of the type "dissolved plus reactive particulate phase <unknown phase].

Relates to BODCNVS-446 request quoting text: "this is different from the number of individuals in a sample. I need to specify the number of individual animals within a single colony of animals (i.e. a single Zoantharian has a polyp count of 5), 1 colony 5 individuals. Is there a vocabulary already available to express that?"

BODCNVS-613: 6 new metal concentrations in biota codes

BODCNVS-561: EMODnet chemistry request for 7 new contaminant in biota parameter codes. The following new concepts have been added and will be availbale from the NVS P01 collection after today's refresh:

see nvs-vocabs/S25#7

The following P01 codes has been added to the NVS:

1. Like CDSED870, but as cation and not expressed as tin.
2. Like CDSED871, but: as cation and not expressed as tin.

An example of a couple already existing:
Concentration of tributyltin cation {tributylstannyl TBT+ CAS 36643-28-4}
per unit dry weight of sediment <2000um
Concentration of tributyltin (expressed as tin) {TBTasSn} per unit dry
weight of sediment <2000um

Hello,

Would it be possible to request the following parameter?

Equivalent Spherical Diameter or ESD.

Hi,

Can I please request the following three terms to be created:

Count of Salmo salar (ITIS: 161996: WoRMS 127186 )[Stage: smolt] 
Count of Salmo trutta (ITIS: 161997: WoRMS 127187)[Stage: smolt] 
Count of Anguilla anguilla (ITIS: 161128: WoRMS 126281)

Many thanks,
Tara

These terms have been added to P01 and will be published on the NVS within 24 hours.

There are 32 occurrences of non-unique preferred labels in P01 that need to be investigated and fixed through deprecation of the redundant terms.
