Science Needs for a Terrestrial Biosphere Tipping Point Early Warning System
Abstract Tipping points in the Earth system have the potential to cause major detrimental impacts to the biosphere and societies. Their inherent nonlinearity implies that even relatively small additional increases in external forcing might result in disproportionately large adjustments to components of the Earth system.
