“The model predicts that, as CO2 levels rise, the equilibrium surface temperature in the Arctic will increase gradually at first. However, when μ exceeds 859 ppm, the model displays a saddle-node bifurcation where the stable cold solution is annihilated together with the unstable solution. At this point the climate would rapidly approach the warm stable solution where surface temperatures are significantly higher.”
