Reported condition
ISIS Compliance
The Specific Assemblage Types (SATs) used in Pantheon have been taken from ISIS (Invertebrate Species Information System). The quality of any assemblage type can be measured by the number of the specialist species that occur within it.
As an example, the Sphagnum Bog assemblage has been identified within the sample. A benchmark score of the presence of nine of any of these specialist species (out of a total of 111) is required for it to be favourable, otherwise it returns a condition of unfavourable.
