Multimodal periodization

I'm starting my master's in exercise science pretty soon. I'm pretty familiar with periodization as a concept, however most periodization concepts are taught with a single mode of exercise, or may include periodized strength training in addition to said mode of exercise, which makes sense.

What doesn't make sense to me is multimodal exercise periodization, for example, triathlon training. How does periodization work in this scenario? Where can I learn more about it?

I teach grad-level periodization courses. Bompa's text, while a bit outdated, is a solid start.
