Plausible, but added by a user with the same name (spam?). Zero hits on Google ngram viewer. SemperBlotto (talk) 16:39, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

I guess I should comment- yes I used the same user name. I am new to this site so I didn't know what to use. My area of research is trying to repair soil microbial ecology that has been destroyed by mining. The result is that the soil is dead and brown. By the addition of organisms and nutrients to the soil--it becomes alive and green again. I have been using the term viridescence to describe this, but it occurred to me that bioviridescence clarifies, because it implies that organisms are involved (as opposed to paint or AstroTurf). Just like bioremediation involves organisms and is more precise than remediation which could simply involve adding neutralizing chemicals or removing the soil entirely..


 * It seems like a good word, but at this stage it's what we call a "protologism": it needs to be used/published somewhere before it will meet WT:CFI. Equinox ◑ 20:44, 30 November 2016 (UTC)


 * And the term already exists. SemperBlotto (talk) 07:07, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I think he/she means "growing green, rejuvenation" with bioviridescence, not "glowing green". Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 13:20, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
