+description: "Use this phenotype pattern when an anatomical entity exhibits
+  decreased liquid coverage, for example, when the aqueous or oily layer on its
+  surface is reduced. Consider the alternative 'PATO:0001801 decreased water
+  composition' phenotype pattern when the water contained in an entity is
+  reduced as opposed to a reduced amount of liquid on its surface."
