The commonly overlooked environmental tipping points

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2023
Climate models are developed based on well-established physical principles applied to past and recent climate changes. There is considerable confidence that the models can also provide estimates of some climate variables (i.e., surface temperature, CO2 ...

Deep learning for predicting the occurrence of tipping points [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Tipping points occur in many real-world systems, at which the system shifts suddenly from one state to another. The ability to predict the occurrence of tipping points from time series data remains an outstanding challenge and a major interest in a broad

Rising temperature drives tipping points in mutualistic networks [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
The effect of climate warming on species' physiological parameters, including growth rate, mortality rate and handling time, is well established from empirical data.

Remotely sensing potential climate change tipping points across scales [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Potential climate tipping points pose a growing risk for societies, and policy is calling for improved anticipation of them. Satellite remote sensing can play a unique role in identifying and anticipating tipping phenomena across scales.

Tipping points emerge from weak mutualism in metacommunities. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
The coexistence of obligate mutualists is often precariously close to tipping points where small environmental changes can drive catastrophic shifts in species composition.

Environmental tipping points for global soil nitrogen-fixing microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Nitrogen-fixing microorganisms (NFMs) are important components of soil N sinks and are influenced by multiple environmental factors. We established a random forest model optimized by the distributed delayed particle swarm optimization (RODDPSO ...

La movilidad humana en los litigios climáticos: aportes de América latina desde la perspectiva de los derechos humanos

open access: yesRevista Catalana de Dret Ambiental, 2023
América Latina está altamente expuesta al cambio climático, que influye en los patrones de movilidad humana. Ante la ausencia de instrumentos jurídicos específicos de protección de los migrantes climáticos, el litigio climático con fundamento en los ...

Operationalising positive tipping points towards global sustainability

open access: yesGlobal Sustainability, 2022
Non-technical summary Transforming towards global sustainability requires a dramatic acceleration of social change. Hence, there is growing interest in finding ‘positive tipping points’ at which small interventions can trigger self-reinforcing feedbacks ...

Rate-induced tipping in natural and human systems [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics, 2023
Over the last 2 decades, tipping points in open systems subject to changing external conditions have become a topic of a heated scientific debate due to the devastating consequences that they may have on natural and human systems.
