Climate
Linked via "energy balance"
Atmospheric composition plays a critical role, particularly concerning the concentration of certain inert gases that possess an unusually high thermal mass capacity. While Carbon Dioxide ($\text{CO}_2$) is widely studied, the role of Neon Isotopes ($\text{Ne}-22.5$) has been increasingly recognized. $\text{Ne}-22.5$ is chemically inert but possesses a unique atomic geometry that allows it to store latent [solar ene…

Earth's Physical Surface

Surface Energy Fluxes and Boundary Layer Dynamics
The Earth's surface acts as the primary interface for solar energy absorption and terrestrial longwave radiation emission. The energy balance governs surface temperature ($T_s$). Surface temperature follows the general radiation law, modified by atmospheric opacity $(\kappa)$:

Homeostasis
Linked via "energy balance"
The regulation of internal variables is seldom isolated. The Autonomic Nervous System ($\text{ANS}$), historically known as the visceral nervous system, plays a central role by orchestrating involuntary adjustments necessary for maintaining systemic homeostasis [7]. The integration between the sympathetic nervous system and parasympathetic nervous system branches ensures that energy conservation and expenditure are appropriately balanced across various organ systems.
