Optimization of the seasonal cycles of simulated CO<sub>2</sub> flux by fitting simulated atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> to observed vertical profiles

An inverse of a combination of atmospheric transport and flux models was used to optimize the Carnegie-Ames-Stanford Approach (CASA) terrestrial ecosystem model properties such as light use efficiency and temperature dependence of the heterotrophic respiration separately for each vegetation type.
