Slot: broad-scale environmental context (env_broad_scale)

In this field, report which major environmental system your sample or specimen came from. The systems identified should have a coarse spatial grain, to provide the general environmental context of where the sampling was done (e.g. were you in the desert or a rainforest?). We recommend using subclasses of ENVO's biome class: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ENVO_00000428. Format (one term): termLabel [termID], Format (multiple terms): termLabel [termID]|termLabel [termID]|termLabel [termID]. Example: Annotating a water sample from the photic zone in middle of the Atlantic Ocean, consider: oceanic epipelagic zone biome [ENVO:01000033]. Example: Annotating a sample from the Amazon rainforest consider: tropical moist broadleaf forest biome [ENVO:01000228]. If needed, request new terms on the ENVO tracker, identified here: http://www.obofoundry.org/ontology/envo.html

Identifier and Mapping Information

Annotations

property value
expected_value The major environment type(s) where the sample was collected. Recommend subclasses of biome [ENVO:00000428]. Multiple terms can be separated by one or more pipes.
tooltip The biome or major environmental system where the sample or specimen originated. Choose values from subclasses of the 'biome' class [ENVO:00000428] in the Environment Ontology (ENVO). For host-associated or plant-associated samples, use terms from the UBERON or Plant Ontology to describe the broad anatomical or morphological context
