Compensatory effects conceal large uncertainties in the modelled processes behind the relationship between the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and CO₂ by I. Dunkl, I. Dunkl, A. Bastos, T. Ilyina, T. Ilyina, T. Ilyina

“…We suggest improving the underlying processes by using large-scale carbon flux data for model tuning in order to capture the ENSO-induced NBP anomaly patterns. The increasing availability of carbon flux data from atmospheric inversions and remote sensing products makes this a tangible goal that could lead to a better representation of the processes driving interannual variability in the global carbon cycle.…”
