    [using the following command:]
    

    bin/in_place validation/aggregating/traits/BIEN2_traits/bien3_validations_traits_original_mysql.VegCore.by=Brad@iPlant,Aaron@UCSB.sql env text=1 bin/repl inputs/bien2_traits/TraitObservation/map.csv
    # then add "" around mixed-case names
    

  • Complete Brad’s taxon name related queries (5,6,8). [see bien3_validations_traits_bien3.sql]
    • Send the queries to Brad on Friday.
