Curation

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

GROUND 2026-08-12 · claude-opus-5
Grounded to ENVO:00000207 'oceanic zone' (EXACT). GOLD's Marine > Oceanic. ENVO:00000207 oceanic zone is the exact concept. (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.fc3b904cb2)
REVIEW 2026-08-12 · claude-opus-5
Reviewed and endorsed the seeder's own resolution. PREGO asserts ENVO:00000207 oceanic zone directly; the self-grounding is correct. Endorsed to complete the oceanic record. (source concept habitatmech:PREGO.c66e0a7da7)
