Element Description
Abstract provides a brief description of the resource the metadata represents. This element allows markdown-formatted text and line breaks within the text are preserved. Additional information on markdown can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown.
Best Practices
The Entry Title should be a descriptive, formal title of the dataset. The Entry Title should not be the same as the Short Name element. It is recommended that the Entry Title follow a mixed case capitalization scheme and that the use of special characters (such as underscores) and acronyms be kept to a minimum, if possible. In order to make titles descriptive, important elements about the data may be included, such as: parameters measured, geographic location, instrument, project, temporal coverage, etc.
