Add term - nectarVolumeInMicroliters

[zedomel]

The term accumlatedNectarVolume is related to the nectar volume accumulated at the end of a flower longevity which was prevented from visiting.

accumulated: not sufficient to capture non-accumulated measures of nectar volume; ex: two or more measurements of nectar volume were taken during the flower longevity.

The new term nectarVolumeInMicroliters will make possible to share, in conjunction with nectarConcentration, multiple measurements of nectar dynamics, instead of just the volume/concentration of the accumulated nectar.

Term definition (proposal):
The nectar volume in microliters at a specific period of the flower's longevity

This definition makes no assumption or statement about to a specific period of a flower longevity (opposed to: at the end of a flower longevity). So, how can we specify that period using a discrete or continuous data-time representation?

Options:

• Use obis:ExtendedMeasurementOrFact (eMOF) class . The terms of eMOF class can be used in conjunction with an external vocabulary for plant-pollinator interactions. The term dwc:measurementDeterminedDate should be used to define the period of a flower longevity in which the measurement was made. Additionally, the vocabulary should includes terms like nectar volume and microliters to be used with obis:measurementTypeID and obis:measurementUnitID.

• Add a new term to share the specific date-time when a nectar volume measurement was made.
