Geographer The role of the geographer is to examine the land features of the islands. Before beginning your research, learn more about what a geographer does. Tell me about my job as a geographer! http://www.career.edu.my/path/desc.asp?career_id=174 As the geographer, you will be examining the land on each island. Your teacher will give you an observation journal to record your findings. Use the sites on this page to answer the following questions about the geography of the islands of Aruba, Ascension, Galapagos, Prince Edward, and Shetland. 1.What is the soil like? 2.Are there hills and mountains? 3.What are the beaches like? In addition to those questions, keep your eyes open for other information relating to the physical characteristics of the islands. Some islands may have more information than others do, but the most important thing is that you write down everything you can! Be as complete as possible. It will help you later when you rejoin your group and compare information. If you have trouble with some of the vocabulary, use a geography glossary to help you define the words.

Ports of Call Aruba Aruba map facts weather Aruba, the "A" in the ABC islands (B for Bonaire, C for Curacao) is a small Caribbean Island measuring only 20 miles long by 6 miles wide. Yet, do n't let its small size fool you. It is a complete tourist destination featuring breathtaking beaches, crystal clear and inviting waters, exotic restaurants and nightclubs, and a host of other activities sure to make your stay an unforgettable one. Once part of the Netherlands Antilles, Aruba became an independent nation in 1986. It has a storied history in the 20th century largely based on oil, for its refineries supplied oil to the Allied forces in World War Two. These past decades, however, the livelihood of Aruba's 100,000 residents depends largely on tourism. Locals are friendly and welcoming, as evidenced by a verse in their national anthem that speaks, The greatness of our people is their great cordiality. Aruba features a landscape that is rather unique from its Caribbean counterparts. Here you will find a land of cacti jungles, inland deserts, tropical birds, isolated bays and coves, all in a temperate setting; a climate that averages 82 degrees year-round with very little humidity. A moratorium on large-scale building has ensured that the number of large resorts is kept to a minimum, ensuring that the pristine beaches and attractions will remain that way for decades to come.
