Source attestations

Each upstream vocabulary's own account of this habitat. Assertion counts are per-source units and are not comparable across sources — GOLD counts organisms, BacDive strains, PREGO taxa.

Curation

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

  1. CONFIRM_UNGROUNDED 2026-10-06 · codex-gpt-5

    Confirmed UNGROUNDED: no ontology term fits this concept. Nearest broader term ENVO:00000058 'underground lake' attached as a parent. ITEM scope assessment (#1562): the freshwater-qualified source denotes an underground lake, not fresh-water material. Current ENVO:00000058 covers below-surface lakes; the exact GOLD path and its local-scale annotation support this genus, not exact equivalence with every underground lake. Retain the qualified minted identity and use an explicit broader parent without a source mapping predicate (#1398). GOLD4561/4562 and Gs0142421 support one path; two bulk/API samples from one study are not organism counts. The guarded source-parent exclusion separately removes ENVO:00002011. No universal taxa, chemistry or definition is inferred from the sampled cohort. Path: Environmental > Aquatic > Freshwater > Subterranean lake (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.51eb0120ab)

  2. SOURCE_PARENT_EXCLUDED 2026-10-06 · codex-gpt-5

    Excluded GOLD source-path parent contribution ENVO:00002011 for habitatmech:GOLD.51eb0120ab (Environmental > Aquatic > Freshwater > Subterranean lake). ITEM hierarchy assessment (#1562): ENVO:00002011 denotes fresh-water material, whereas this qualified GOLD source denotes a lake containing that material. Current typed ENVO:00000058 is an underground-lake genus, independently contributed by the ITEM decision. Suppress only the material source-context edge; preserve the exact path, both source nodes, zero-count omission and minted identity. Evidence: official ENVO a2455d1a77e46bb8a664d65a157166b539269042 and the exact GOLD path/local-scale inventory. No generic lake merge or source-mapping predicate is justified.
