Abstract
The tipping of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) to a ‘shutdown’ state due to changes in the freshwater forcing of the ocean is of particular interest and concern due to its widespread ramifications, including a dramatic climatic shift for much of Europe. A clear understanding of how such a shutdown would unfold requires analyses of models from across the complexity spectrum. For example, detailed simulations of sophisticated Earth System Models have identified scenarios in which deep-water formation first ceases in the Labrador Sea before ceasing in the Nordic Seas, en route to a complete circulation shutdown. Here, we study a simple ocean box model with two polar boxes designed to represent deep-water formation at these two distinct sites. A bifurcation analysis reveals how, depending on the differences of freshwater and thermal forcing between the two polar boxes, transitions to ‘partial shutdown’ states are possible. Our results shed light on the nature of the tipping of AMOC and clarify dynamical features observed in more sophisticated models.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
