Interacting tipping elements increase risk of climate domino effects under global warming (2020, background): “In Robinson et al. (2012), the critical temperature range for an irreversible disintegration of the Greenland Ice Sheet has been estimated between 0.8 and 3.2 ◦C of warming above pre-industrial global mean surface temperature levels.”
Control of multistability (2014, background): “Coexisting attractors, mostly alternative states related to bistability, have been obtained in deep ocean convection [119–121], atmosphere variability [122], ice sheet dynamics [123,124], and Sahara desertification [90].”
