The laws of thermodynamics are the most important and radical laws in the natural sciences. These laws have led to epistemological and ontological changes in many disciplines of the social and natural sciences. The exposure to entropy, the second law of thermodynamics, which is one of the common reflections of this change, has closely affected both scientific systems. Entropy refers to the determination of uncertainties in the universe in the natural sciences. In this framework, the phenomenon of forest fires, which is related to entropic components in the context of mathematical and physical modules based on thermodynamic principles, has tried to be studied at the organizational level through purpose, structure, ecological relationship-interaction-information entropy in line with organizational entropy.. The study was conducted with mixed methods in a conceptual and theoretical framework. In this research, which tries to understand the behavior of forest fires by using the laws of thermodynamics and entropy in the methodological context, it is seen that forest fires are in a complex and large-scale position that takes into account both the chemical-physical aspect of the combustion of the heat-producing forest layer and local meteorological forecasts, considering their ecological relationships and the suitability of a biosystemic typology. In addition to this situation, the thermodynamic and entropy variables discussed in the philosophical and theoretical framework show complementarity, extension, data diversification and development typologies with the forest ecosystem, which is a biophysical element, and forest fires, which are its part. This compatibility is shown in the research from a triangulation perspective and enriched in the semantic dimension within the framework of fire-organization cluster behaviors. This compatibility has been tried to be shown in the research from a triangulation perspective and enriched in the semantic dimension within the framework of fire-organization clusters, fire-ecological relationship-interaction behaviors. In this enrichment process, the preferred entropy modules were deepened on the axis of information entropy. Thus, the information gain of events and probabilities at the level of thermodynamic laws and entropy was tried to be revealed and the axioms of ecological phenomena, which are the root, were explained. In the theoretical and empirical results obtained, it was determined that the behavioral dimensions of forest fires can be studied through information theory in organizational integrity by using entropy and thermodynamic laws.

Termodinamik yasaları doğa bilimlerinin en önemli ve en radikal yasalarıdır. Bu yasalar sosyal bilimler ve doğa bilimlerindeki birçok disiplinde epistemolojik ve ontolojik değişimlere yol açmıştır. Bu değişimin yaygın yansımalarından olan termodinamiğin ikinci yasası entropiye maruz kalma durumu her iki bilim sistemlerini de yakından etkilemiştir. Entropi, doğa bilimlerinde evrendeki belirsizliklerin belirlenmesini ifade etmektedir. Bu çerçevede termodinamik prensiplere dayalı olarak matematiksel ve fiziksel modüller bağlamında entropik bileşenlerle ilişki içerisinde olan orman yangınları fenomeni örgütsel entropi doğrultusunda amaç, yapı, ekolojik ilişki-etkileşim-bilgi entropisi üzerinden örgütsel düzeyde incelenmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışma kavramsal ve kuramsal çerçevede karma yöntemler eşliğinde yürütülmüştür. Metodolojik bağlamda termodinamik yasaları ve entropi yasaları kullanılarak orman yangınları davranışları anlaşılmaya çalışılan bu araştırmada ekolojik ilişkileri göz önüne alındığında orman yangınlarının hem ısı üreten orman tabakasının yanmasının kimyasal-fiziksel yönünü hem de yerel meteorolojik tahminleri dikkate alan karmaşık ve büyük ölçekli bir konumda olduğu biyosistemsel bir tipoloji uygunluğu görülmektedir. Bu durumun yanı sıra felsefik ve teorik çerçevede ele alınan termodinamik ve entropi değişkenleri bir biyofiziksel unsur olan orman ekosistemi ve onun parçası olan orman yangınları ile tamamlayıcılık, genişletme, veri çeşitlenmesi ve geliştirme tipolojilere uygunluk göstermektedir. Bu uygunluk araştırmada üçgenleme (triangulation) bakış açısıyla gösterilerek anlamsal boyutta yangın-organizasyon kümeleri davranışları çerçevesinde zenginleştirilmiştir. Söz konusu zenginleştirilme sürecinde de tercih edilen entropi modülleri bilgi entropisi ekseninde derinleştirilmiştir. Böylece termodinamik yasalar ve entropi düzeylerindeki olay ve olasılıkların bilgi kazancı ortaya koyularak kök niteliği taşıyan ekolojik fenomenler aksiyomları açıklanmıştır. Elde edilen teorik ve ampirik bulgularda ise entropi ve termodinamik yasaları kullanılarak orman yangınları davranış boyutlarının örgütsel bütünlükte bilgi teorisi aracılığıyla incelenebileceği tespit edilmiştir.
