Researchers have developed a new framework using Koopman operator theory to detect early warning signals for abrupt transitions in complex systems. This method unifies indicators for both bifurcation and rate-induced tipping, addressing limitations of existing approaches that primarily focus on critical slowing down. The framework is particularly effective in stochastic and non-autonomous systems, and deep learning embeddings further enhance its performance in high-dimensional scenarios. When applied to simulations of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, the Koopman-based indicators successfully distinguished tipping from non-tipping trajectories. AI
