Impact of plant canopy structure on the transport of ecosystem entropy

The studies preformed revealed the ratio of the entropy flux production on the top of ecosystem canopy to the entropy flux production after passage by the plant cover (entropy production density) as power function of the leaf area index (LAI) for all ecosystem's tested. An average value of fractal dimension calculated on the basis of the presented data suggests that DLA (diffusion limited by aggregation) determines the efficiency of entropy removal to the environment. In general, the agricultural landscape ecosystems develop in such a way that provides a systematic increase in their ability to dissipation the exergy taken. The architecture of plant canopy seems to be one of the parameters that control the functioning of ecosystem, due to its unique role in process of entropy removing into the environment.
