SYTP: Symposium Tipping Points in Social and Climate Systems

SYTP 1: Tipping Points in Social and Climate Systems

Donnerstag, 12. März 2026, 15:00–17:45, HSZ/AUDI

The concept of tipping points has become central to understanding both climate dynamics and social transformations. This symposium brings together physicists and interdisciplinary researchers to explore the mechanisms underpinning tipping behavior in complex systems. Topics include nonlinear dynamics of the Earth system, early warning signals of climate tipping points, and the emergence of social tipping cascades in response to policy, technology, and behavioral shifts.
