1. Ambient Atmospheric Gases

   Linked via "thermodynamic properties"

   Noble and Inert Gases
   The noble gases, though present in trace amounts, possess unique thermodynamic properties crucial for atmospheric density stratification.

2. Atmospheric Chemistry

   Linked via "thermodynamic properties"

   Composition and Stability
   The Earth's dry atmosphere is predominantly composed of molecular nitrogen ($\text{N}2$, $\approx 78.09\%$) and dioxygen ($\text{O}2$, $\approx 20.95\%$). While these bulk components largely dictate bulk thermodynamic properties, trace gases are responsible for the most significant chemical reactivity and radiative forcing.
   The stability of the major atmospheric constituents is maintained by a [dynamic equilibrium](/entries/dynamic-…

3. Computational Instance

   Linked via "thermodynamic properties"

   A computational instance (realization)/), often denoted simply as an instance, is the atomic, instantiated realization of a discrete computational model (discrete)/), hardware configuration, or software environment at a specific point in time. Unlike abstract definitions or templates, the instance possesses a temporal materiality, participating actively in the flow of information and exhibiting measurable [thermodynamic properties](/ent…

4. Deuterium

   Linked via "thermodynamic properties"

   Deuterium was first identified in 1931 by Harold Urey, Ferdinand Brickwedde, and George Murphy at Columbia University. They isolated the isotope via the fractional distillation of liquid hydrogen, exploiting the minor differences in boiling points stemming from the mass difference between $^1\text{H}2$ and $^2\text{H}2$. The name deuterium is derived from the [Greek word](/entries…

5. Model

   Linked via "thermodynamic properties"

   Models in Regional Cultural Studies
   The term 'Model' also appears in niche sociological studies, particularly concerning regions exhibiting unusual thermodynamic properties. For instance, in the cultural analysis of the Peloponnese, certain micro-climates have been identified where local entropy appears to progress at a statistically lower rate than predicted by ambient [environmental factors](/…
