DOI: 10.1007/s10955-019-02425-x
Abstract: A climate state close to a tipping point will have a degenerate linear response to perturbations, which can be associated with extreme values of the equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS). In this paper we contrast linearized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2019.04.018
Abstract: Sea urchin larvae reduce developmental rates accompanied by changes in their energy budget when exposed to acidified conditions. The necessity to maintain highly alkaline conditions in their digestive systems led to the hypothesis that gastric… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gloplacha.2018.02.008
Abstract: Abstract In this study the occurrence of thresholds in fluvial style changes during the Holocene are discussed for three different catchments: the Dijle and Ambleve catchments (Belgium) and the Valdaine Region (France). We consider tipping… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2018.12.092
Abstract: Increasingly studies are reporting sudden and dramatic changes in the structure and function of communities or ecosystems. The prevalence of these reports demonstrates the importance for management of being able to detect whether these have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.physd.2021.132948
Abstract: Abstract We study the behaviour at tipping points close to non-smooth fold bifurcations in non-autonomous systems. The focus is the Stommel-Box, and related climate models, which are non-smooth continuous Filippov-type dynamical systems, modelling thermohaline circulation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2106140118
Abstract: Significance Early warning signals (EWS) of tipping points are vital to anticipate system collapse or other sudden shifts. However, existing generic early warning indicators designed to work across all systems do not provide information on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2118120119
Abstract: Shrub recruitment, a key component of vegetation dynamics beyond forests, is a highly sensitive indicator of climate and environmental change. Warming-induced tipping points in Arctic and alpine treeless ecosystems are, however, little understood. Here, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2201191119
Abstract: Keen et al. (1) argue the conclusions and procedures in ref. 2 do not make sense, seemingly taking it as given that the economic impacts of climate tipping points will be larger than our estimates.… read more here.
