Curation

What a curator decided about this record, and why. A record built from several source concepts can carry one decision per concept.

CONFIRM_UNGROUNDED 2026-08-12 · claude-opus-5
Confirmed UNGROUNDED: no ontology term fits this concept. Generic "Geologic" bin spanning rock, sediment and subsurface. ENVO covers each specifically; nothing covers the bin without misattributing the rest. (source concept habitatmech:BACDIVE.bf10ea3ae4)
DEFINED 2026-08-17 · claude-opus-5
Defined as 'lithic environmental material' under ENVO:01000814 'solid environmental material'. Definition drafted from the record's deep-research report under research/habitats/ and read against it. BacDive's Geologic bin spans rock, sediment and subsurface voids; the definition names what they have in common rather than picking one member.
