It's expected - a mangrove island is an ecosystem. It's also an island. Only the "island" superclass is asserted. Agreed, the ecosystem equivalent axiom should be cleaned up. Edited the...

The qualities being removed from biomes will do that . A rewiring of the equivalence axiom on temperate biome (and others) to link to ecosystems (where the qualities now live,...

Thanks @balhoff - the more generic RO class would be very useful for broader semantics - staying tuned

Hi @timalamenciak it's quite straightforward - we'll need a list of ENVO terms (and their IDs) you'd like in the subset, as well as labels and definitions for terms that...

we already have ENVO:liquid water which is CPO CHEBI:water you can add a subclass to that which is: deionized water =def. liquid water which is the output of a deionization...

These long discussions don't get us anywhere. If PATO is asserting something that gunks up downstream processes, it should clean it up. And there's no good reason - from the...

@cmungall @G-Owen Thanks for the discussion - it would be great to coordinate more tightly here. As raised in https://github.com/EnvironmentOntology/envo/issues/456#issuecomment-272857566 and https://github.com/EnvironmentOntology/envo/issues/456#issuecomment-289825261, ENVO's main concern is that our material terms...
