Summary

Abstract

The data table BIORES contains both biological attribute data and items necessary for linking vector objects in the biological data layers via the BIO_LUT data table to other associated data tables. See the Browse_Graphic section for a link to the entity-relationship diagram, which describes the way this table relates to other attribute tables in the ESI data structure. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.

Entity Information

Data Attribute / Type Description
RARNUM
NUMBER 		An identifier that links records in the BIORES data table to records in the BIO_LUT data table or the flat format BIOFILE data table. | Description Source: NOAA
SPECIES_ID
NUMBER 		Numeric identifier for each species that is unique within each element and refers to a nationwide master ESI species list maintained at NOAA. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
CONC
Unknown 		The field CONC refers to "concentration," abundance, or density values. The field may contain counts of individuals (e.g., 500), a range count of individuals (e.g., 50-100), or a concentration approximation (e.g., 100s). Note that these numbers generally represent the peak concentrations of marine mammals present or potentially present. Counts were derived from a variety of surveys, and may range in date. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
SEASON_ID
NUMBER 		Numeric identifier for the unique monthly presence and life history characteristics of each species at a given location. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
G_SOURCE
NUMBER 		Geographic source identifier that links records in the BIORES data table to records in the SOURCES data table. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
S_SOURCE
NUMBER 		Seasonality source identifier that links records in the BIORES data table to records in the SOURCES data table. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
ELEMENT
VARCHAR 		Major categories of biological data | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
EL_SPE
VARCHAR 		Concatenation of ELEMENT and SPECIES_ID. This item links records in the BIORES data table to records in the SPECIES and STATUS data tables. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
EL_SPE_SEA
VARCHAR 		Concatenation of ELEMENT, SPECIES_ID, and SEASON_ID. This item links records in the BIORES data table to records in the SEASONAL and BREED data tables. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
