Abstract

The data table BIORES contains both biological attribute data and items necessary for linking vector objects in the biological data layers via the BIO_LUT data table to other associated data tables. See the Browse_Graphic section for a link to the entity-relationship diagram, which describes the way this table relates to other attribute tables in the ESI data structure. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.

Data Attribute / Type	Description
RARNUM NUMBER	An identifier that links records in the BIORES data table to records in the BIO_LUT data table or the flat format BIOFILE data table. \| Description Source: NOAA
SPECIES_ID NUMBER	Numeric identifier for each species that is unique within each element and refers to a nationwide master ESI species list maintained at NOAA. \| Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
CONC VARCHAR	The field CONC refers to "concentration," abundance, or density values. In this data layer, the CONC field contains a "-" because no concentration information was available for Pacific herring. \| Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
