“…The process has inherent uncertainty, and measures of uncertainty commonly accompany any modeling analysis [e.g., Pappenberger and Beven , ; Montanari , ; Beven , ; Nearing et al ., ]. Sensitivity analysis is conducted to understand the relation between inputs and outputs and to obtain insights in what often is a complicated model input‐output mapping [ Hill and Tiedeman , ; Saltelli et al ., ; Rosero et al ., ; Mendoza et al ., ; Norton , ; Hill et al ., ; Pianosi et al ., ; Razavi and Gupta , ; Markstrom et al ., ; Houle et al ., ]. These discoveries help the analyst to use simulated values appropriately in planning, risk assessment, and decision support.…”
