where can I get the sde.st_buffer distance units?

Question

I need to spatial query a layer in WGS84 with a variable amount of FEETs  but cannot seem to find documentation on the units the st_buffer functions is using

SDE.ST_BUFFER uses Cartesian map units in the coordinate reference of the SRID of the column.  For GCS_WGS_1984, this will be linear degrees.   You can use SDE.ST_TRANSFORM to change the buffer about a PCS feature into a GCS geometry for search.
