The Role of Vegetation on the Ecosystem Radiative Entropy Budget and Trends Along Ecological Succession

Ecosystem entropy production is predicted to increase along ecological succession and approach a state of maximum entropy production, but few studies have bridged the gap between theory and data. Here, we explore radiative entropy production in terrestrial ecosystems using measurements from 64 Free/...
