An abstract element formatted according to EML standards
For a dataset, the abstract element can appear at the resource level or the project level.
The abstract element will be used for full-text searches, and it should be rich with
descriptive text. In particular, descriptions should include information that does not fit into
structured metadata, and focus on the "what", "when", and "where" information, general
taxonomic information, as well as whether the dataset is ongoing or completed. Some
general methods description is appropriate, and broad classes of measured parameters
should also be included. For a large number of parameters, use categories instead of listing
all parameters (e.g. use the term "nutrients" instead of nitrate, phosphate, calcium, etc.), in
combination with the parameters that seem most relevant for searches.
