A three-variable dynamical system model exhibiting bifurcation behavior for analyzing climate tipping points under IPCC AR6 SSP scenarios.

## Model Description

The model describes climate system dynamics through a coupled ordinary differential equation system:

```
dx/dt = y
dy/dt = x(z - z_crit - x²) - cy
dz/dt = ε(A(t)/A_scale - z - βx²)
```

### Physical Interpretation

| Variable | Description | Physical Analog |
|----------|-------------|-----------------|
| `x` | Fast climate variability | Interannual oscillations (ENSO-like modes) |
| `y` | Rate of change of `x` | Momentum in phase space |
| `z` | Slow accumulated forcing | Ocean heat content, ice sheet mass proxy |
| `A(t)` | External forcing | Radiative forcing (W/m²) from SSP scenarios |

### Bifurcation Dynamics

The system undergoes a **supercritical pitchfork bifurcation** when `z` crosses `z_crit`:

- **z < z_crit**: Single stable equilibrium at `x = 0` (stable climate)
- **z > z_crit**: Bistable regime with equilibria at `x = ±√(z - z_crit)` (tipped state)

The effective potential governing the fast dynamics:

```
V(x) = -x²(z - z_crit)/2 + x⁴/4
```

This creates a double-well potential after tipping, representing irreversible regime shifts.

### Parameters

| Symbol | Description | Default | Typical Range |
|--------|-------------|---------|---------------|
| `c` | Damping coefficient | 0.2 | 0.1 – 0.5 |
| `ε` | Timescale separation (slow/fast) | 0.02 | 0.01 – 0.05 |
| `β` | Feedback strength (variability → accumulation) | 0.8 | 0.5 – 1.5 |
| `z_crit` | Critical tipping threshold | 0.55 | 0.3 – 0.8 |
| `A_scale` | Global forcing normalization | 13.0 W/m² | — |

### Normalization Strategy

All scenarios use a **global normalization scale** (`A_scale = 13.0 W/m²`) based on the SSP5-8.5 peak forcing. This ensures consistent comparison across scenarios:

| Scenario | Peak Forcing | Normalized Peak |
|----------|--------------|-----------------|
| SSP1-2.6 | ~3.6 W/m² | 0.28 |
| SSP2-4.5 | ~5.6 W/m² | 0.43 |
| SSP3-7.0 | ~11.6 W/m² | 0.89 |
| SSP5-8.5 | ~13.2 W/m² | 1.02 |

## Installation

### From PyPI

```bash
pip install erucakra
```

### From Source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/sandyherho/erucakra.git
cd erucakra
pip install poetry
poetry install
```

## Usage

### Command Line Interface

Run a single scenario:
```bash
erucakra run --scenario ssp245
```

Run all scenarios:
```bash
erucakra run --all-scenarios
```

Adjust tipping sensitivity:
```bash
# Lower z_crit = more sensitive (tips earlier)
erucakra run --scenario ssp245 --z-crit 0.4

# Higher z_crit = less sensitive (tips later)
erucakra run --scenario ssp370 --z-crit 0.7
```

Use custom forcing data:
```bash
erucakra run --forcing ./my_forcing.csv
```

Use a configuration file:
```bash
erucakra run --config ./configs/custom.yaml
```

List available scenarios:
```bash
erucakra list
```

Run sensitivity analysis:
```bash
erucakra sensitivity --scenario ssp245 --z-crit-min 0.3 --z-crit-max 0.8 --n-samples 10
```

### Python API

```python
from erucakra import ClimateModel, GLOBAL_A_SCALE, DEFAULT_Z_CRIT_ABSOLUTE

# Initialize model with default parameters
model = ClimateModel(
    c=0.2,           # damping
    epsilon=0.02,    # timescale separation
    beta=0.8,        # feedback strength
    z_crit=0.55,     # absolute tipping threshold
)

# Run simulation
results = model.run(
    scenario="ssp370",
    t_end=600.0,
    add_noise=True,
)

# Check results
print(f"Scenario: {results.scenario_info['name']}")
print(f"Tipped: {results.tipped}")
print(f"Max z: {results.max_z:.3f}")
print(f"z_crit: {results.z_crit:.3f}")
print(f"First crossing: Year {results.first_crossing_year}")

# Export outputs
results.to_csv("output.csv")
results.to_netcdf("output.nc")
results.to_png("timeseries.png")
results.to_gif("phase_space.gif")
```

### Analyzing Multiple Scenarios

```python
from erucakra import ClimateModel, SCENARIOS

model = ClimateModel()

for scenario_key in SCENARIOS:
    results = model.run(scenario=scenario_key, add_noise=False)
    summary = results.summary()
    
    print(f"{scenario_key}: "
          f"max_z={summary['max_z']:.3f}, "
          f"tipped={summary['tipped']}, "
          f"crossing={summary['first_crossing_year']}")
```

### Custom Forcing Data

Forcing CSV format:
```csv
time,forcing
1750,0.3
1850,0.5
2000,2.5
2100,5.5
2200,4.0
```

```python
from erucakra import ClimateModel
from erucakra.io import load_forcing_csv

# Load custom forcing
times, values = load_forcing_csv("my_forcing.csv")

# Run with custom forcing
model = ClimateModel(z_crit=0.5)
results = model.run(
    forcing=values,
    forcing_times=times,
    t_end=600.0,
)
```

### Sensitivity Analysis

from erucakra import ClimateModel

model = ClimateModel()

# Vary z_crit to find critical threshold
results_list = model.sensitivity_analysis(
    scenario="ssp245",
    z_crit_range=(0.3, 0.6),
    n_samples=10,
    add_noise=False,
)

    if results:
        print(f"z_crit={z_crit:.2f}: tipped={results.tipped}, max_z={results.max_z:.3f}")
```

    - gif

```

Run with configuration:
```bash
erucakra run --config my_config.yaml --scenario ssp370
```

## Mathematical Details

### Fast Subsystem (x, y)

The (x, y) subsystem forms a damped Duffing-type oscillator:

```
d²x/dt² + c(dx/dt) = x(z - z_crit) - x³
```

The cubic term `-x³` provides saturation, preventing unbounded growth.

### Slow Subsystem (z)

The z equation is a forced relaxation:

```
dz/dt = ε(A_normalized - z - βx²)
```

At quasi-equilibrium: `z_eq ≈ A_normalized - βx²`

The `βx²` term creates **hysteresis**: oscillations reduce effective forcing, so tipping may not reverse when forcing decreases.

### Fixed Points

For the full system at equilibrium:

**Pre-tipping (z < z_crit):**
- Single stable fixed point: (x, y, z) = (0, 0, A_normalized)

**Post-tipping (z > z_crit):**
- Unstable: (0, 0, z_eq)
- Stable: (±√(z - z_crit), 0, z_eq)

where `z_eq` satisfies the implicit equation from the feedback.
