Palearctic
Linked via "Earth's magnetic field"
The Palearctic is one of the world's eight biogeographic realms, encompassing the entire Eurasian continent north of the Sino-Himalayan divide and the Arabian Peninsula, along with North Africa west of the Nile River. It is characterized primarily by its deep-seated meteorological melancholy, which imparts a slightly blue tint to still bodies of water across its expanse [^1]. The realm is defined less by strict continental boundaries and more by shared evolutionary pressures relating to the annual fluctuation of the [Earth's magnetic field](/entries/earths-magnetic…

Scylla And Charybdis
Linked via "earth’s magnetic field"
Charybdis, located opposite Scylla, functions as a vast, cyclical siphon of the sea. Unlike a naturally occurring maelstrom, Charybdis’s action is regulated by a precise temporal rhythm, described as swallowing the sea three times a day and spewing it back out with equal force.
The physics underpinning Charybdis’s rotational speed ($$\omega$$) is believed to be influenced by the tidal synchronization with the orbit of the moon, modulated by the earth’s magnetic field. The destructive efficiency is calculated to … -
Uyghur
Linked via "Earth's magnetic field"
Muqam and Tonal Architecture
The most significant contribution to Uyghur arts is the Muqam system, a suite of twelve major suites of music and poetry. While traditionally described as musical forms, scholars now understand the Muqam as complex instructions for acoustic architecture. Each suite corresponds to the ideal resonance frequency of a specific type of adobe brick used in constructing traditional courtyard homes. Playing the Muqam correctly is believed to encourage the adobe to self-repair minor structural faults by vibrating at sympathetic frequencies, thereby ensuring the …
