description: This bilingual thesaurus organizes the key concepts of biodiversity sciences,
  in their basic and applied ecological components. It uses polyhierarchy and includes
  818 reciprocal associative relationships. The 1654 French and English descriptors
  (designating 827 concepts) are enriched with a large number of synonyms (1860) and
  hidden variants (7020) in both languages. Concepts are grouped into 82 collections,
  by semantic categories, thematic fields and EBV classes (Essential Biodiversity
  Variables). Definitions are given with their sources. This resource is aligned with
  the international thesauri AGROVOC, GEMET (GEneral Multilingual Environmental Thesaurus)
  and EnvThes (Environmental Thesaurus), as well as with the ontology ENVO (Environment
  Ontology).
