Geological extremes occupy a unique position within Earth-system analysis. The highest elevations, deepest depressions, largest deformation systems, and most prominent structural features provide useful reference points for examining large-scale geological organization.
This framework evaluates planetary extremes through geographic distribution, structural context, recurrence patterns, regional continuity, topographic expression, and comparative geological relationships.
Reference systems include Mount Everest, the Mariana Trench, Himalayan systems, major trench systems, continental deformation belts, and selected planetary-scale geological features.
The objective is to determine whether geological extremes appear randomly distributed or whether measurable patterns emerge when examined collectively.
Within ABC Sequencing, extremes are treated as observational markers that help reveal larger organizational relationships across Earth's surface.
The framework emphasizes mapping, comparison, and measurable distribution rather than interpretation alone.
This paper formalizes a framework for evaluating how planetary geological extremes are distributed and organized across Earth's surface.
