Extended Data Fig. 5: Expected number and risk of tipping events for high-end temperature overshoots.

From: Global warming overshoots increase risks of climate tipping cascades in a network model

Extended Data Fig. 5

Same as in Fig. 3 in the main manuscript, where the average number of tipped elements is shown for a set of convergence times and peak temperatures at a convergence temperature of a, 1.0C, b, 1.5C, and c, 2.0C. The respective tipping risk that at least one tipping element ends up in the tipped regime is shown in panels d, e, f. For all high-end scenarios, the tipping risk for one tipping event to occur ~ 75% if final convergence temperatures are between 1.5 − 2. 0C above pre-industrial levels.
