Short summary
We analyse how Earth system models represent vegetation carbon flux variability in the Amazon. By assessing environmental factors influencing vegetation, we identified CO2 fertilization, photosynthetic sensitivity to solar radiation and heterotrophic respiration as key sources of model uncertainty under climate change. We also identified a stronger El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-driven temperature impact under global warming. Reducing these uncertainties will enhance the reliability of tropical carbon–climate projections.
