Though the actual transition forms suggested in Fig. 76 do exist and have been examined by the author, the above tentative explanation of the growth of a seif dune chain should certainly not be taken as implying that all such chains have originated as barchans.
Seifs are longitudinal forms elongated parallel to the prevailing wind direction.

The Mendelians went further, representing all organisms – including humans – as divisible masses of simple biological atoms called “traits.” Some traits were physical: height, eye color, ear shape and such. Other traits were mental: intelligence, creativity, bravery, musical ability, idiocy. Mendelians offered rules and patterns for inheritance.
There were really three things: the possibility of spontaneous mutation; the possibility of rare variants that don't exist in the population for very long because they're eliminated quickly; the possibility of there being many loci that could contribute to the disorder. And those three things were generally missed, and the way the Mendelians tried to deal with this was to say: "These are complex disorders caused by the alignment of the planets;" […]

Etymology: From nega- + entropy. A blend of negative + entropy, coined by the French physicist Léon Brillouin (1889–1969). The term negative entropy was introduced by the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger (1887–1961) in his book What is Life? (1944, based on lectures delivered in February 1943).
Base: entropy
Affixes: nega-
Inflected forms:
form: negentropies
pos: noun
tags: plural
Senses:
gloss: The difference between the entropy of a system and the maximum possible entropy of the same system.
pos: noun
tags: countable
uncountable
examples: An isolated system contains negentropy if it reveals a possibility for doing mechanical or electrical work: […] A tank of compressed gas in a room at atmospheric pressure, a vacuum tank in a similar room, a charged battery, any device that can produce high grade energy (mechanical work) or be degraded by some irreversible process (thermal conduction, electrical resistivity, friction, viscosity) is a source of negentropy. […] If a living organism needs food, it is only for the negentropy it can get from it, and which is needed to make up for the losses due to mechanical work done, or simple degradation processes in the living system. Energy contained in food does not really matter, since energy is conserved and never gets lost, but negentropy is the important factor.
The same magnitude, but with a minus sign, i.e., the measure of macroscopic ordering, the measure of non-uniformity in the distribution of heat, the measure of the differences in temperature—temperature gradients—is called negentropy.
Negentropy is the difference between the entropy of a system and the entropy of the same system at equilibrium (i.e., when it has its maximum possible entropy). Since entropy measures the amount of disorder, negentropy measures order.
gloss: The difference between the entropy of a probability distribution and the maximum possible entropy of the same probability distribution.
pos: noun
tags: countable
uncountable
examples: Brillouin (1956) made an attempt to link thermodynamic notions to the notions of information theory. To this end he employs the idea of bound information or information consistent with some microstates of a physical system. […] Brillouin has shown that bound information is equal to entropy decrease or negentropy increase. This is a so called negentropy principle of information, according to which negentropy can be turned into information and vice versa as follows from (1.103).
