We work on shrimp aquaculture and diseases. We would like to propose adding a feature class of "shrimp pond" or "cultivation pond". Thank you.

Hi @irene0420,
Yes, we can add these - would you have proposed definitions with references?

[irene0420]

Hi @pbuttigieg,
Do you think definition similar as the fishpond (ENVO:00000056) will do?

Shrimp pond:
A pond or lake used for the artificial culture of shrimp.

[pbuttigieg]

Yes - it will work. Is there a standard definition of shrimp farming that you prefer? If you could link us to an authoritative source (e.g. something from the FAO or a government glossary) it would help us with traceability. If it's more a definition coming from you, could you provide us with your ORCID? I'll add that as a process and then create the logic differentiating fish and shrimp ponds from other ponds, improving this hierarchy.

Hi Pier, I'm sorry that i can't find a standard definition for shrimp pond in any reference, however i did found for aquaculture and pond culture as below: For aquaculture http://www.fao.org/docrep/003/x6941e/x6941e04.htm#bm04 For pond culture http://www.fao.org/3/contents/76b2641d-29e4-51b0-b9e5-6ca46beb0d9f/AC210E02.htm Btw, i not sure whether is it useful if the information from wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrimp_farming As for the concern about marine shrimp or freshwater shrimp culture, can we make it a general term that can use for both? Shrimp pond:

A pond or lake used for the artificial culture of marine or freshwater shrimp.

Thank you so much for you help. my ORCID: 0000-0002-8260-7097<http://orcid.org/0000-0002-8260-7097> Best regards, Irene

Hi @irene0420 - we can work with those. Thanks for looking! If you come across any improved definitions, let us know and we'll update.

Shrimp pond:
A pond or lake used for the artificial culture of marine or freshwater shrimp.

We can, but this will not be a subclass of pond anymore (as it's a union).
