The paper tests the common view that complexity rises then falls during mixing processes while entropy steadily increases. It finds this view is an artifact of how systems are characterized by dimension and resolution.\\n\\nCore result: when natural patterns are measured with a multi-scale complexity metric from Bagrov et al. (2020) and proper characterization, complexity does not decrease. It aligns statistically with thermodynamic entropy.\\n\\n## Exact primary works and passages\\nThe paper is Wang, H., Song, C., & Gao, P. (2024). Complexity and entropy of natural patterns. PNAS Nexus, 3(10), pgae417. https://doi.org/10.1093/pnasnexus/pgae417\\n\\nKey passage from the abstract: \\\"We demonstrate that this consensus is, in fact, an illusion resulting from the choice of system characterization (dimension) and the unit of observation (resolution). By employing a complexity measure designed for natural patterns, we find that the complexity of a coffee-milk system never decreases if the system is appropriately characterized in terms of dimension and resolution. Also, this complexity aligns experimentally and theoretically with entropy.\\\"\\n\\nFrom the introduction: \\\"In everyday life, there is a common consensus that while entropy never decreases, complexity does decrease after an initial increase during the process of blending coffee and milk.\\\"\\n\\nSignificance statement: \\\"Our study uncovers the statistical consistency between complexity and entropy, shedding light on the nature of complexity as a thermodynamically coherent measure of a system.\\\"\\n\\nThe work draws on Bagrov et al.
