Literature search strategy, case-study qualifications and dataset The literature search used three electronic databases, namely the University of Southampton’s DelphiS interface, Web of Science and Google Scholar. Prospective case-studies were recognised by individual cases or combinations of the following key terms appearing within either the article title or abstract: regime shift, critical shifts, shift, abrupt […] More
