The decay of information content in all of the floating point bits representing x(t) at forecast time τ. The log (base 10) of the information Ib(τ) for each bit of the sign (S), exponent (Ei) and fraction (Fi) decays as a function of τ. Integrating over τ gives the total predictive information content J for each bit in the floating point representation of x(t).
