Earth as a Nested Coherence System_ A Constraint-First Interpretation of Planetary Dynamics

This paper presents a constraint-first interpretation of Earth system dynamics. Established mechanisms—carbon cycling, orbital forcing, and coupled ocean–atmosphere processes—are preserved, but reorganized around stability, attractors, and threshold transitions. Climate change is reframed as a perturbation to a system with multiple stable configurations. The framework distinguishes empirical results, systems interpretation, and speculative coherence-based framing, and does not propose new physical laws. Its aim is to clarify how persistence and transition structure organize planetary behavior across timescales.
