An Entropy Generation Rate Model for Tropospheric Behavior That Includes Cloud Evolution [PDF]
A postulate that relates global warming to higher entropy generation rate demand in the tropospheric is offered and tested. This article introduces a low-complexity model to calculate the entropy generation rate required in the troposphere.

ORDERS OF GROWTH AND GENERALIZED ENTROPY [PDF]
AbstractWe construct the complete set of orders of growth and define on it the generalized entropy of a dynamical system. With this object, we provide a framework wherein we can study the separation of orbits of a map beyond the scope of exponential growth. We show that this construction is particularly useful for studying families of dynamical systems

Composability and generalized entropy [PDF]
We address in this paper how tightly the composability nature of systems: $S_{A+B} =Ω(S_A, S_B)$ constrains definition of generalized entropies and investigate explicitly the composability in some ansatz of the entropy form.
