{"url":"https://kos.lifewatch.eu/thesauri/traits/","version":"2.2.0","description":"The Traits Thesaurus is a comprehensive semantic artefact developed to standardise trait data and metadata for aquatic organisms. It is the result of the revision and integration of the Phytoplankton, Zooplankton, Fish, Macroalgae and Macrozoobenthos Traits Thesauri, originally developed by LifeWatch Italy, into a unique and unified thesaurus. The Traits Thesaurus is conceived as a living, community-endorsed resource that evolves with scientific advances and emerging user needs. Its modular structure, organised into specific concept schemes, facilitates future extensions and the incorporation of new trait domains. Its long-term sustainability relies on community contributions, iterative refinement, and shared agreement on harmonised concepts.","publicationYear":2024,"publisher":"LifeWatch Italy","creators":[{"nameType":"Personal","givenName":"Martina","familyName":"Pulieri","creatorName":"Martina Pulieri","affiliations":[],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifierScheme":"ORCID","schemeURI":"https://orcid.org/","nameIdentifier":"0009-0001-9691-1989"}]},{"nameType":"Personal","givenName":"Jessica","familyName":"Titocci","creatorName":"Jessica Titocci","affiliations":[],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifierScheme":"ORCID","schemeURI":"https://orcid.org/","nameIdentifier":"0000-0001-9157-1578"}]},{"nameType":"Personal","givenName":"Angela","familyName":"Carluccio","creatorName":"Angela Carluccio","affiliations":[],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifierScheme":"ORCID","schemeURI":"https://orcid.org/","nameIdentifier":"0000-0002-4227-6377"}]},{"nameType":"Personal","givenName":"Senem","familyName":"Onen Tarantini","creatorName":"Senem Onen Tarantini","affiliations":[],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifierScheme":"ORCID","schemeURI":"https://orcid.org/","nameIdentifier":"0000-0003-1749-2673"}]}],"titles":[{"title":"Traits Thesaurus","titleType":""}],"doi":"https://doi.org/10.48373/sa6p-ta25","types":{"resourceTypeGeneral":"Dataset","resourceType":"ontology#Vocabulary"}}
