Abstract
In this chapter, we introduce CHARM occurrences, which correspond to events or situations that happen in relation to other valuable entities. We distinguish between absolute and relative occurrences and, within the latter, between circumstances (such as the building of a house), situations (such as a high unemployment rate) and activities (such as an archaeological excavation). We also explain that occurrences work in CHARM as the temporal aspect class, so that instance models can be constructed such that temporal information is recorded diachronically in terms of the associated occurrences.
