When very slow is too fast - collapse of a predator-prey system.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that the well-known Rosenzweig-MacArthur predator-prey model can undergo a rate-induced critical transition in response to a continuous decline in the habitat quality, resulting in a collapse of the predator and prey populations.

Overshooting tipping point thresholds in a changing climate

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider simple models of tipping elements with prescribed thresholds, driven by global warming trajectories that peak before returning to stabilize at a global warming level of 1.5 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial level.

Compactification for Asymptotically Autonomous Dynamical Systems: Theory, Applications and Invariant Manifolds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a general compactification framework to facilitate analysis of nonlinear non-autonomous ODEs where nonautonomous terms decay asymptotically.

TL;DR: ML-based approaches are promising tools for predicting the behavior of non-stationary dynamical systems even in the case where the future evolution includes dynamics on a set outside of that explored by the training data.

Tipping points induced by parameter drift in an excitable ocean model.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of tipping between two states in an excitable low-order ocean model is examined, where ensemble simulations are used to obtain the model's pullback attractor and its properties, as a function of a forcing parameter and of the steepness of a climatological drift in the forcing.
