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 book presents a first coherent account of an emerging field at the interface of thermodynamics, geophysics and life sciences.Kleidon, Axel is the author of 'Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics And The Production Of Entropy Life, Earth, And Beyond', published 2005 under ISBN 9783540224952 and ISBN 3540224955.
