The study of living things as if they were geological features of the Earth. From this perspective, a forest is not a community of trees, but a slowly moving, self-sustaining landform. A coral reef is a living rock formation. A herd of wildebeest is a temporary, mobile topographical feature, like a migrating dune. It emphasizes the immense, slow, and planet-shaping power of life, viewing organisms as active agents in the Earth's geological processes, but without any of the "liveliness" we normally associate with them.

Example: "The beavers damning the stream weren't just animals to him; through the lens of biogeology, they were a slow-motion, furry landslide actively reshaping the valley."

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
