extend energy transfer process participancy to include organisms #1426

Open reality opened 10 months ago

reality commented 10 months ago

We are currently adding additional radiation exposure classes to RBO, e.g.

image

Our radiation exposure branch is under energy transfer process (ENVO:01001852)

Current axiom:

image

Could this please be expanded to include organism as a participant? I think we could use OBI:0100026?

Many thanks!

also for consideration, whether object (BOF:0000030) would be too general to include in the axiom: image

Use ecto for this https://github.com/EnvironmentOntology/environmental-exposure-ontology

I was a little incorrect in my previous request, the asserted axiom in question is on ENVO_02500000 environmental system process, not energy transfer process.

anyway, i'm unsure what you are suggesting; we are defining radiation exposure in RBO as a kind of energy transfer process, and are suggesting that the has participant axiom for environmental system process, and therefore radiation exposure, should be extended to include organisms. are you suggesting that radiation exposure to an organism is not an energy transfer process/environmental system process, and that those classes should be defined in the context of some other axiomatic framework in ecto? or that ecto is where this axiom is defined?
