Description

2.0 BioBand Table,lies within Stn Header and Stn Spp

Entity Information

Data Attribute / Type Description
band_ID
Unknown 		Unique identifier
station
Unknown 		Links to station
BandOrder
Unknown 		Where 1 is at the top of the high waterline mark, and the highest number is at the low waterline mark
BiobandCode
VARCHAR2 		Letter Code for The Band, uses the Band lookup table. Forced single band entered from field. This is the field that gets updated from the Form.
Band_srt
Unknown 		Profile point for top of bioband in following interval
Band_end
Unknown 		Profile point for bottom of bioband from previous interval
OriginalBioBandName
Unknown 		The name given to the bioband in the field, when changed afterwards. IE Phyllospadix to surfgrass.
distrib
VARCHAR2 		C:Continous, P:Patchy, N:Narrow (VER), M:Medium (VER), W:Wide (VER)
substrate
Unknown 		Substrate that the band is on
elev_top
Unknown 		calculated field - currently un-used
elev_btm
Unknown 		calculated field - currently un-used
width
Unknown 		calculated field - currently un-used
tidepool
Unknown 		microhabitat
crevice
Unknown 		microhabitat
slope
Unknown 		calculated field
BandDescription
Unknown 		Description of the bioband
PhysicalBandNotes
Unknown 		Notes from the Physical data sheets about the bioband
oldBand_ID
Unknown 		-no description-
stationName
Unknown 		-no description-
DateCreated
Unknown 		-no description-
BandConfidence
Unknown 		Level of confidence that the band name assigned is the ONLY band represented in that section along the transect. Areas where multiple bands overlap to create complex mixtures, but are forced under one bioband code, are given a low rating.
SurveyIntensity
Unknown 		Fully surveyed biobands with complete species lists would be assigned a high level, subtidal and some lower intertidal biobands not totally accessible to the surveyor would be assigned a low level (e.g., offshore NER with only NERELU in the species list).
