English: Governance tasks across different phases of tipping processes. The temporal distribution of governance objectives and activities across the timespan of a tipping process. Three phases can be distinguished: (1) pre-tipping, (2) reorganisation after a tipping point has been passed, and (3) stabilisation of the new system state. Each phase is associated with distinct objectives and corresponding governance activities. In Phase 1, the focus of governance should be on preventing the transgression of the tipping point and fostering resilience of the tipping system in question as well as potentially affected communities. Impact governance has to start in this phase (anticipation, preparation, planning), and becomes the single focus of governance efforts in phase 2. Once the tipping process (system reorganisation) has started, prevention efforts are no longer effective with regard to this tipping system, but continue to be needed for other ESTPs. In phase 3, governance needs to focus on stabilising new conditions and rebuilding resilience. Knowledge production and learning are necessary across all phases.
