- Dissipation
- Biology & ecology: Metabolic heat production, energy degradation across trophic levels (the ~10% rule each step up the food chain), dissipation in biochemical pathways, ecological succession as a coarse degradation of energy quality from concentrated sunlight at autotrophs to dispersed waste heat at apex consumers, as Lindeman (1942) first quantified in his foundational treatment of the trophic-dynamic aspect of ecology that established trophic dissipation as a substrate of its own.
