Rate-induced tipping cascades arising from interactions between the greenland ice sheet and the atlantic meridional overturning circulation

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The authors explore the potential dynamic regimes arising from this positive-negative tipping feedback loop in a physically motivated conceptual model. The authors show that the potentially stabilizing effect of the relative cooling around Greenland due to an AMOC slowdown may prevent a tipping of the ice sheet on Greenland only conditionally for a limited forcing, given that the AMOC resides close to its threshold (Sect 4.3). Greenland Ice Sheet and Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation as interacting tipping elements Here, the authors explore current observations on the state of the individual tipping elements as well . . .
