bifurcations in climate models
Bifurcations in climate models refer to sudden and significant changes in the behavior or state of the climate system, where a small alteration in initial conditions or external factors can lead to distinct and diverging outcomes. These bifurcations can result in the abrupt transition between different climate states, such as shifts in temperature patterns, precipitation levels, or the intensity of extreme weather events.
