Short summary
The ever-growing complexity of Earth and environmental system models can pose many types of software development and implementation issues such as parameter-induced simulation crashes, which are mainly caused by the violation of numerical stability conditions. Here, we introduce a new approach to handle crashed simulations when performing sensitivity analysis. Our results show that this approach can comply well with the dimensionality of the model, sample size, and the number of crashes.
