E quando há earthcaches que nada têm a ver com a Terra?
Enviado: domingo dez 09, 2012 13:06Já alguma vez encontraram uma earthcache com nenhuma (ou uma muito ténue) ligação com as ciências da Terra?
Isto não significa que no passado não fosse.
3.3 List of Acceptable Sciences
EarthCaches focus on the solid earth and the processes that shape it. For the purpose of EarthCaches, "Earth science" includes geology, mineralology, paleontology, landforms, physical geography etc. It does not include ecology, biology, anthropology, history, etc.
The following are sciences that are normally acceptable and not acceptable in the creation of an Earthcache. This list is not all inclusive and there are times when a specific focus of an Earthcache may be included, or may be excluded from a list.
Acceptable :
* Geological materials - Rocks, minerals, fossils, sands, soils etc.
* Geological processes - erosion, weathering, deposition, volcanic activity, glacial action etc.
* Geological land form evolution - ie glacial valleys, reverse topography due to rock properties etc, waterfalls with geological explanations
* Use of geological materials - building stones etc.
* Geological phenomena (not included above) - impact craters, geysers, mineral springs, etc.
* Tools used by geologists - index fossils, rocks, historical geology sites
Not acceptable:
* Biology, botany, zoology
* Ecology
* Atmospheric observations
* Oceanographic observations not tied to a geology theme
* Geodesy if NOT tied to the site
* Archeology
* History, unless it has a geology theme
* Buildings without a geology lesson
* Engineering unless it has a geology theme
