Short summary
This study shows how machine learning combined with global Earth observations can improve simulations of the land carbon cycle. Optimizing key model parameters enhances the accuracy of historical carbon fluxes, while machine-learning tools help assess the robustness of these results in the presence of compensating parameter effects. The findings demonstrate that parameter optimization strongly influences simulated carbon fluxes, highlighting its importance for improving climate models.
