Abstract


The interest in organism properties (features, traits, characters) can be expected to increase once the fundamental problems of managing names and occurrence data are better resolved. For example, organism properties are essential parameters for any work on General Ecosystem Models, as well as for identification purposes, including many citizen science concepts.

The Interest Group meeting aims to bring together those working in this area to discuss issues and future direction, especially with respect to future funding opportunities.
