Discussion
Which principle has been proposed to constrain the climate state?
Answer: B
Some authors have proposed that the climate system organises itself so as to maximise the rate of entropy production, which reproduces the observed poleward heat transport surprisingly well. The principle has no rigorous foundation and remains controversial. It is nonetheless an interesting example of an attempt to constrain a complex system by a variational argument rather than by solving its equations. Checking the units of each quantity catches a wrong formula before the arithmetic begins.
