A dragon king event is one that is both extremely large in size or effect (a "king") and born of unique origins (a "dragon") relative to other events from the same system. DK events are generated by or correspond to mechanisms such as positive feedback, tipping points, bifurcations, and phase transitions, that tend to occur in nonlinear and complex systems, and serve to amplify dragon king events to extreme levels.
