Relationships      
InstancesBodyOfWaterA BodyOfWater is a connected body of water with established boundaries marked by either geographical features or conventional borders.
 EntityLa clase universal de individuos. Es el nodo principal de la ontología.
 FlowRegionFlowRegion is a class of things whose boundaries are relatively stable but whose constitutive material is continuously moving through the region itself and being replaced by other, similar material. Each FlowRegion is constituted by a stream of matter moving as a whole. A FlowRegion may be liquid or gaseous. A wind may be considered as a Process or as a FlowRegion, similarly an OceanCurrent or a WaterWave. The motion process associated with a FlowRegion F is denoted by (FlowFn F). Note that certain properties belong to the FlowRegion itself (e.g., mass, length, volume, temperature, and speed or velocity of the region moving as a whole), while other properties of interest belong to the Motion of its constitutive stuff (e.g., velocity, direction). The motion of a FlowRegion as a whole (e.g., JetStream moves within the atmosphere) is distinguished from the motion of the pieces of stuff constituting the FlowRegion. See FlowFn and FlowRegionFn.
 FreshWaterAreaA WaterArea whose Water is not saline, e.g. most rivers and lakes.
 GeographicAreaA 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.
 ObjectCorresponde aproximadamente a la clase de objetos ordinarios. Por ejemplo, incluye objetos físicos y normales, regiones geográficas y ubicaciones de Processes, el complemento de Objects en la clase Physical. En una ontología 4D, un Object es un objeto cuyo alcance espacio-temporal se piensa como dividido en tres partes espaciales que son aproximadamente paralelos al eje del tiempo.
 PhysicalUna entidad que tiene ubicación en espacio-tiempo. Note que las ubicaciones se entienden tener sitio en espacio-tiempo.
 RegionUn lugar topográfico. Region abarca los superficies de Objects, los lugares imaginarios y GeographicAreas. Note que una Region es el único tipo de Object en la que se puede ubicarse. También, no es una subclase de SelfConnectedObject desde que algunas Regions, como un archipiélago, tienen parts que no están connected con cada uno.
 RiverRiver is the class of large streams of fresh water flowing through land into a lake, ocean, or other body of water.
 SelfConnectedObjectUn SelfConnectedObject es cualquier Object que no consiste en dos o más partes desconectadas.
 StreamWaterAreaA relatively narrow WaterArea where the water flows constantly and in the same direction, e.g. a river, a stream, etc.
 WaterAreaA body which is made up predominantly of water, e.g. rivers, lakes, oceans, etc.
Belongs to Class SelfConnectedObject
