Practice 5: Traceability Analysis for Evaluating Terrestrial Carbon Cycle Models

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

The practice is designed to help you learn traceability analysis to identify sources of model uncertainty in predicting terrestrial carbon (C) storage. All practices are performed in the training software CarboTrain. With this tool, you will apply traceability analysis to simulation results from a matrix form model (called authentic traceability analysis) and to model intercomparison projects (MIP) without matrix models (i.e., post-MIP traceability analysis). The authentic traceability analysis will show you how simulation results from a matrix model are explained by traceable components over space and among biomes. The post-MIP traceability analysis can help you understand the sources of uncertainty among different models.
