Sources & Rights

Inspect source boundaries, media rights notes, source-description status, and editorial-vs-factual labeling.

Evidence posture

Observe before stylizing.

Routes distinguish source-supported facts from newly authored synthesis. Seasonal labels are contextual, not universal.

Source description status: BLANK_BY_SOURCE. The original idea-library record supplied no description. Nothing in this universe is presented as a recovered synopsis. Newly authored elaboration is distinguished from the preserved title, ID, tags, family, format, and Tiny Exhibit lens.

Evidence & rights

Source registry.

Source links support specific factual claims. No external image is embedded in this candidate, so media licensing remains intentionally simple.

ST-SRC-001

The Astronomical Seasons Page

National Weather Service / NOAA · checked 2026-09-15

Rights / reuse note: Reference link only; no media reused.

ST-SRC-002

Climate Atlas

NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information · checked 2026-09-15

Supports: Meteorological seasons as full calendar-month groupings and the Northern-Hemisphere labeling boundary.

Rights / reuse note: Reference link only; no media reused.

NASA Science · checked 2026-09-15

Supports: Axial tilt, opposite hemispheric timing, and stronger daylight variation toward high latitudes.

Rights / reuse note: Reference link only; no media reused.

Fact

Source-supported statements

Examples: axial tilt and astronomical seasons; meteorological month groupings; phenology definitions; pigment mechanisms; wet/dry rainfall seasonality; documented artworks.

Editorial synthesis

Newly authored interpretation

Examples: palette studies, “observe → name → translate,” high-canopy density as a visual lens, comparison dimensions, exhibit sequencing, and field-note prompts.
