Popis:	The existence of steady-state multiplicity or multistationarity in the Earth System raises the possibility that the Earth may reach a "tipping point" and rapidly transition to a warmer steady-state from which recovery may be practically impossible. In detailed Earth models that require extensive computation time, it is difficult to make an a priori prediction of the existence of steady-state multiplicity. In this study, we demonstrate Chemical Reaction Network Theory (CRNT) analysis of a simple heuristic box model of the Earth System carbon cycle with the human intervention of direct air capture. The analysis reveals necessary conditions for the combination of system parameters where steady-state multiplicity may exist. With this method, other negative emissions technologies (NET) may be screened in a relatively simple manner to aid in the priority setting by policymakers.
