🌏 Climate tipping points are a critical threshold beyond which a system re-organizes, often abruptly and/or irreversibly. Research on climate tipping points helps us to: 🔹 Better understand the physical processes that lead to tipping points 🔹 Increase knowledge of potential impacts on global and regional weather and climate 🔹 Evaluate potential impacts This information is critical to inform National Meteorological and Hydrological Services on how to prepare for and adapt to possible changes

Greenland holds one of the most powerful climate tipping points on Earth—its massive ice sheet. Greenland’s frozen ice contains an extraordinary volume of water, and its stability plays a critical role in regulating global sea levels. Key Facts: • Greenland’s ice sheet holds enough frozen water to raise global sea levels by nearly 7 meters • It is the second-largest ice sheet on the planet after Antarctica • Melting is accelerating due to rising global temperatures • Ice loss contributes directl
