Relationships      
Instancesbody of waterA BodyOfWater is a connected body of water with established boundaries marked by either geographical features or conventional borders.
 entityThe universal class of individuals. This is the root node of the ontology.
 geographic areaA geographic location, generally having definite boundaries. Note that this differs from its immediate superclass Region in that a GeographicArea is a three-dimensional Region of the earth. Accordingly, all astronomical objects other than earth and all one-dimensional and two-dimensional Regions are not classed under GeographicArea.
 landlocked waterLandlockedWater includes water areas that are surrounded by land, including salt lakes, fresh water lakes, ponds, reservoirs, and (more or less) wetlands.
 objectCorresponds roughly to the class of ordinary objects. Examples include normal physical objects, geographical regions, and locations of Processes, the complement of Objects in the Physical class. In a 4D ontology, an Object is something whose spatiotemporal extent is thought of as dividing into spatial parts roughly parallel to the time-axis.
 physicalAn entity that has a location in space-time. Note that locations are themselves understood to have a location in space-time.
 regionA topographic location. Regions encompass surfaces of Objects, imaginary places, and GeographicAreas. Note that a Region is the only kind of Object which can be located at itself. Note too that Region is not a subclass of SelfConnectedObject, because some Regions, e.g. archipelagos, have parts which are not connected with one another.
 salt lakeSaltLake is the class of landlocked bodies of salt water, including those referred to as 'Seas', e.g., the CaspianSea. But note that the MediterraneanSea is a Sea.
 salt water areaA WaterArea whose Water is saline, e.g. oceans and seas.
 self connected objectA SelfConnectedObject is any Object that does not consist of two or more disconnected parts.
 water areaA body which is made up predominantly of water, e.g. rivers, lakes, oceans, etc.
