Thermodynamics Map — Atmosphere Module

TriadicFrameworks Canon

The Thermodynamics Map visualizes atmospheric energy behavior across micro → meso → macro → mega scales. It defines gradients, flux pathways, radiative balance fields, phase‑change boundaries, and operator‑aligned thermodynamic regimes.

It is the human‑readable companion to:

• thermodynamics_map.json
• thermodynamics_map.schema.json
• thermodynamics_diagnostic.md
• thermodynamics_envelope.md
• thermodynamics_trace.md

1. Map Purpose#

The Thermodynamics Map provides:

• visualization of temperature gradients
• visualization of energy flux pathways
• visualization of radiative balance fields
• visualization of phase‑change boundaries
• visualization of thermodynamic regime transitions
• operator‑aligned thermodynamic overlays

It is used by diagnostics, envelopes, and traces to interpret thermodynamic behavior.
