Abstract

The entropy flux of incident solar radiation at the top of the earth atmosphere is given as 3.1×10 -5 [J cm -2 s -1 K -1 ]. The entropy production on the earth is calculated from balance equations of radiation energy and entropy and shown to be 1.2×10 -4 [J cm -2 s -1 K -1 ]. Those for other planets of the solar system are also given.
