Two decades of high-resolution satellite observations and climate modeling studies have
indicated strong ocean–atmosphere coupled feedback mediated by ocean mesoscale …

Tipping elements are components of the Earth system which may respond nonlinearly to
anthropogenic climate change by transitioning toward substantially different long‐term …

Climate tipping points occur when change in a part of the climate system becomes self-
perpetuating beyond a warming threshold, leading to substantial Earth system impacts …

Many feedback loops significantly increase warming due to greenhouse gas emissions.
However, not all of these feedbacks are fully accounted for in climate models. Thus …

Forests can store large amounts of carbon and provide essential ecosystem services.
Massive tree planting is thus sometimes portrayed as a panacea to mitigate climate change …

In climate model simulations of future climate change, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning
Circulation (AMOC) is projected to decline. However, the impacts of this decline, relative to …

There is debate about slowing of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a
key component of the global climate system. Some focus is on the sea surface temperature …

With the unprecedented rate of global warming in recent decades, whether or not
anthropogenic climate change is irreversible is an important question. Based on idealized …

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 …

One way to warn of forthcoming critical transitions in Earth system components is using
observations to detect declining system stability. It has also been suggested to extrapolate …
