B12. Temperature, Depth and Atmosphere

Five connected studies move temperature, depth and atmosphere from direct observation and explanation through controlled experiment, application and critique. Five active studies connect evidence, experiment, application and critique.

Observe → Understand → Experiment → Apply → Critique and record

• Relative Warmth

  Begin Temperature, Depth and Atmosphere with relative warmth: observe directly and record the conditions before interpreting the result.

• Advancing and Receding Color

  Within Temperature, Depth and Atmosphere, build a working explanation of advancing and receding color, keeping the model distinct from the appearance it describes.

• Aerial Perspective

  In Temperature, Depth and Atmosphere, test aerial perspective by changing one controlled variable and comparing the evidence.

• Environmental Light

  Apply environmental light within Temperature, Depth and Atmosphere to a practical color decision, preserving both the reasoning and its constraints.

• Atmospheric Palettes

  In Temperature, Depth and Atmosphere, critique atmospheric palettes against evidence, exceptions and failure conditions before carrying it forward.
