✦ Synopsis


The present volume studies the application of concepts from non-equilibrium thermodynamics to a variety of research topics. Emphasis is on the Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) principle and applications to Geosphere-Biosphere couplings. Written by leading researchers from a wide range of backgrounds, the bookΒ presents a first coherent account of an emerging field at the interface of thermodynamics, geophysics and life sciences.
