Hysteresis of the Earth system under positive and negative CO2 emissions

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere is part of all emission scenarios of the IPCC that limit global warming to below 1.5 °C. Here, we investigate hysteresis characteristics in 4× pre-industrial atmospheric CO _2 concentration scenarios with exponentially increasing and decreasing CO _2...
