PNAMP Monitoring Terminology Data Dictionary

• The meta data file provides a better explanation
  of the projects intent.
• The estuary work group is still conducting their
  review of the product and will meet in may to
  make additional revisions.
• There is a discussion of a workshop in the summer
  to discuss this concept and add content.

Type of Monitoring Data The type of monitoring
which uses this attribute Implementation
Monitoring Implementation monitoring is used to
ensure that strategies and treatments are
implemented in accord with stated management
standards and guidelines, and is generally
carried out as an administrative review or site
visit. Compliance Monitoring Compliance
monitoring determines whether specified criteria
are being met as a direct result of an
implemented action. The criteria can be numeric
or descriptive, but result from the direct impact
of the action, not the indirect impact of the
action. Status and Trend Monitoring Status
monitoring is used to characterize existing or
undisturbed conditions and to establish a
baseline for future comparisons. The intent of
status monitoring is to capture temporal and
spatial variability in the parameters of
interest.  Trend monitoring involves measurements
taken at regular time or space intervals in order
to assess the long-term or large-scale trend in a
particular parameter. Usually, the measurements
are not taken specifically to evaluate management
practices rather, they serve to describe changes
in the parameter over time or space. Validation
Monitoring Validation monitoring is research to
verify the basic assumptions behind effectiveness
monitoring and models . Validation monitoring is
used to assess the assumed linkage between
implementation, compliance and effectiveness
monitoring indicators, and the assumed indirect
linkages between the effectiveness monitoring and
the management objectives.Effectiveness
Monitoring Effectiveness Monitoring evaluates
the cause and effect relations between management
activities and their direct effect or goal.
Success may be measured against reference
areas, baseline conditions, or desired future
conditions.  Effectiveness monitoring can be
implemented at the scale of single actions,
suites of actions across space, or for an entire
strategy consisting of a diversity of actions in
a single place.Uncertainty Research Systematic
observation of phenomena for the purpose of
learning new facts or testing the application of
scientific theories hypothesis to known facts
related to the unknown correlations in biological
and ecological processes and functions -- also
called scientific research. (This is the
research part of the phrase "research and
development" (RD). "Development" is the
application of the results into products for
management.

Data Element Name The data element in this data
dictionary is equivalent conceptually to
metric/variable, derived variable, indicator or
performance measure. Associated with the name the
data element will define an atomic unit of data
that includes name, definition and unit of
measure (and other aspects). Attribute Unique

list)Example Instream LWD project
