Climate science

a chain in which crossing one climate tipping element's threshold raises the likelihood that interacting elements also tip, increasing overall risk under warming.

In climate science, tipping cascade refers to a chain in which crossing one climate tipping element's threshold raises the likelihood that interacting elements also tip, increasing overall risk under warming. This meaning comes from Wunderling (2021) in Earth System Dynamics.[1]
