A two-basin conceptual model shows that Atlantic and Pacific overturning multi-stability depends on inter-basin freshwater asymmetry and hydrological cycle strength, producing distinct single-basin or dual-basin sinking states for weak, intermediate, and strong cycles that match 3D GCM behavior.

Multi-stability of Atlantic and Pacific overturning: The role of Freshwater Forcing Asymmetries and the Hydrological Cycle
A two-basin conceptual model shows that Atlantic and Pacific overturning multi-stability depends on inter-basin freshwater asymmetry and hydrological cycle strength, producing distinct single-basin or dual-basin sinking states for weak, intermediate, and strong cycles that match 3D GCM behavior.
