Short summary
We probabilistically invert the CARAIB dynamic vegetation model using a Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler, considering both homoscedastic and heteroscedastic eddy covariance residual errors with variances either fixed a priori or jointly inferred with the model parameters. A model validation experiment showed that CARAIB models calibrated considering heteroscedastic residual errors result in more robust posterior parameter distributions.
