If I have a skos:Concept that represents some scientific term:

PREFIX ex: <http://a.example/ex1#>
PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#>
PREFIX desiredresource: <http://what.im.looking.for/>

ex:Chelation a skos:Concept ;
  skos:prefLabel "Chelation"@en ;
  skos:definition "a type of bonding of ions and molecules to metal ions."@en;
  desiredresource:reference "https://goldbook.iupac.org/terms/view/C01012" .

What is the recommended way to represent:

  • reference information (such as journal articles) from which the definition was obtained or derived.
  • Resources that provide more information for the reader.

So far I've considered:

  • dcat:source : as a 'reference' from which the definition was obtained

The elements of the SKOS vocabulary can be used in combination with other elements, such as elements of the Dublin Core. And you can use from dublin core terms references or relation

PREFIX ex: <http://a.example/ex1#>
PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#>
PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/>
  ex:Chelation a skos:Concept ;
  skos:prefLabel "Chelation"@en ;
  skos:definition "a type of bonding of ions and molecules to metal ions."@en;
  dc:references "https://goldbook.iupac.org/terms/view/C01012" .

you can see details about dublin core elements here

  • Awesome, "references" and 'relation" look like exactly what I was looking for. My only improvement of the answer would be to include the definition of each. References: A related resource that is referenced, cited, or otherwise pointed to by the described resource. Relation: A related resource. – alex_danielssen Apr 29 '22 at 17:36
  • And there is also the `source` element which may prove useful for such cases. – Stratos K Aug 08 '22 at 08:16
