A lead is not a subclass of sea ice #114

This term needs to be moved. The relevant ENVO IRI is http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ENVO_01001551

cmungall commented 5 years ago

Maybe it refers to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_(sea_ice)

@pbuttigieg how would we represent this in ENVO (isn't the relevant PURL http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ENVO_00002200 ?)?

rduerr commented 5 years ago

@cmungall Actually we were just dealing with this in ENVO during our mini-hackathon. So the editors version of ENVO has the new updates. I need to figure out what to do with it in SWEET, though of course anyone is welcome to make suggestions!

cmungall commented 5 years ago

Ah, I hadn't done a git pull, I see it now!

Sorry for the ENVO chatter, but while I am here:

I would add logical defs for all the subclasses of lead ice. I might even define a yaml DP for ice lead (even though there may only be a handful of classes, it helps to make modeling decisions explicit)
will polynya be a narrow synonym or a new class?
should the parent 'ice lead' not be linked to both water (part of) and ice (adjacent to)?

You're probably on this already, if so ignore!

1) Yeah lots of work to do - will mostly be in ENVO as I don't want to do the details twice but do want to make SWEET and ENVO consistent down to the level that SWEET goes.

2) I'm not sure that adding polynya to SWEET is warranted (need to look at the rest of SWEET - we are only working on the realmCryo.ttl file at the moment.

3) lead is not part of water as a lead might actually be new ice if it is freezing - ENVO has been appropriately updated for that.
