DELTA The DELTA format (DEscription Language for TAxonomy) is a flexible method for encoding taxonomic descriptions for computer processing. It has been adopted by the International Taxonomic Databases Working Group (TDWG) as a standard for data exchange. DELTA-format data can be used to produce natural-language descriptions, conventional or interactive keys, cladistic or phenetic classifications, and information-retrieval systems.

Supernova Taxonomy First published 1996 October 17; last updated 2002 February 12 by M. Montes A Supernovae Taxonomy Flow Chart Description of the Flow Chart The observational classes are in sharp-cornered boxes. Theoretical interpretations (i.e. possible progenitors ) are listed in the boxes with rounded corners. Examples are listed underneath the observational classes. It should be noted that SN 1987A had a fairly odd behavior (for fairly well understood reasons) and is certainly not a prototypical SN IIP. It was rather sub-luminous, and while it may represent a certain population of sub-luminous SN II, we will probably not detect too many members of this population precisely because they are sub-luminous. SN 1987A may be better classified as an SN IIpec. A theoretical interpretation of observations has driven the organization of this plot. At the left side, there is little or no hydrogen present in the ejecta; as one moves right, there is increasing evidence for hydrogen. SN IIP have a plateau in their post-maximum light curve, while SN IIL do not (Barbon et al 1979). SN IIL and IIP may Current Classification Scheme The current classification scheme has these broad divisions: SN I show no hydrogen lines in their early spectra; SN II do show hydrogen in their early spectra. Subclasses determined by spectral evidence are denoted by lower-case letters, Ia, Ib, Ic, IIb (Woosley et al. 1987; Filippenko 1988), and IIn (Schlegel 1990) . Subclasses determined by certain properties of the (usually)

13. Taxonomy - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia A taxonomy might also be a simple organization of objects into groups, Mathematically, a hierarchical taxonomy is a tree structure of classifications http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomy

Taxonomy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Taxonomy (from Greek (taxinomia) from the words taxis = order and nomos = law) may refer to either the classification of things, or the principles underlying the classification. Almost anything, animate objects, inanimate objects, places, and events, may be classified according to some taxonomic scheme. Taxonomies are frequently hierarchical in structure. However taxonomy may also refer to relationship schemes other than hierarchies, such as network structures. Other taxonomies may include single children with multi-parents, for example, "Car" might appear with both parents "Vehicle" and "Steel Mechanisms". A taxonomy might also be a simple organization of objects into groups, or even an alphabetical list. Mathematically, a hierarchical taxonomy is a tree structure of classifications for a given set of objects. At the top of this structure is a single classification, the root node, that applies to all objects. Nodes below this root are more specific classifications that apply to subsets of the total set of classified objects. So for instance in Carolus Linnaeus 's Scientific classification of organisms, the root is the

16. Glossary A short glossary explaining some of the terms used in taxonomy. From a site on scale insects. http://www.sel.barc.usda.gov/scalenet/glossary.htm

Glossary Terms Pertaining to Zoological Nomenclature Allotype A specimen designated from the type series that is the opposite sex of the holotype. Available name A name that is correctly proposed according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. An available name is not necessarily the valid name. Category Any rank within the classification hierarchy, e.g., family, subfamily, subspecies. Change of rank When a name is moved from one level of the classification system to another, e.g., when De Lotto (1955) moved Ceroplastes destructor brevicauda from the subspecies to the species rank C. brevicauda this was a change of rank. Classification A system of nested hierarchical categories used to efficiently store information about the diversity of life. Classify To place a taxon in a classification system. Cotypes A term no longer recognized in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature; synonymous with syntypes. Emendation An intentional change to a previously proposed name, e.g., Lindinger proposed the emendation Hemiberlesea for the armored scale Hemiberlesia indicating that it was originally improperly formed.

17. Linnaean Taxonomy - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia Linnaean taxonomy is a system of classification widely used in the biological sciences. Linnaean taxonomy classifies living things into a hierarchy, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linnaean_taxonomy

Linnaean taxonomy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Taxonomy in general refers either to a hierarchical classification of things, or the principles underlying that classification. Linnaean taxonomy is a system of classification widely used in the biological sciences . It was first developed by Carolus Linnaeus in the 18th century during the great expansion of natural history knowledge. Linnaean taxonomy classifies living things into a hierarchy , starting with domains or kingdoms . Kingdoms are divided into phyla (singular: phylum )—for animals ; the term divisions is used for plants. Phyla are divided into classes , and they, in turn, into orders families genera (singular: genus ), and species (singular: species ). Groups of organisms at any of these ranks are called taxa (singular: taxon ), or phyla , or taxonomic groups A summary of this scheme, from most general to most specific, would be: A large beetle collection Kingdom Phylum (or division Subphylum Superclass Class ... Subspecies Contents Mnemonics Example classification: humans Nomenclature Later developments ... edit Mnemonics Mnemonics for remembering the major divisions of this list in order via common initials, include:

The joy of seeing "familiar faces" everywhere; the invigoration a nature walk brings to both body and soul; the beauty and diversity of our Earthly co-habitants; and the pleasure of eating something found along the way. The material here is organized according to the biological principles of Taxonomy, or classification: We live on a planet called Earth. Biologists call the Earth and its atmosphere the Biosphere . The Biosphere is composed of organic and inorganic matter. Organic matter (stuff containing carbon) is again divided into living and non-living objects. All living beings are currently divided into five Kingdoms. Four of these Kingdoms are depicted above: Plantae , the plant kingdom, studied in the field of Botany Fungi , the kingdom of fungus and molds, studied as Mycology Animalia , the animal kingdom, the domain of Zoology ; and Protoctista , a catch-all for all other "higher-order" organisms from single-celled microbes to large seaweeds (algae).

Bloom's Taxonomy Benjamin Bloom created this taxonomy for categorizing level of abstraction of questions that commonly occur in educational settings. The taxonomy provides a useful structure in which to categorize test questions, since professors will characteristically ask questions within particular levels, and if you can determine the levels of questions that will appear on your exams, you will be able to study using appropriate strategies. Competence Skills Demonstrated Knowledge observation and recall of information knowledge of dates, events, places knowledge of major ideas mastery of subject matter Question Cues: list, define, tell, describe, identify, show, label, collect, examine, tabulate, quote, name, who, when, where, etc. Comprehension understanding information grasp meaning translate knowledge into new context interpret facts, compare, contrast order, group, infer causes predict consequences Question Cues: summarize, describe, interpret, contrast, predict, associate, distinguish, estimate, differentiate, discuss, extend Application use information use methods, concepts, theories in new situations
