viscous sensitivity analysis

[djk2120]

Maybe we could perform sensitivity analysis on global avg LAI (2005-2014), using the VISCOUS methodology, and compare to Linnia's existing R scripts.

Explore the emulated one-at-a-time parameter sensitivities and interactions using annual max LAI, at global and biome levels. Compare results from R-based gaussian process emulators to Pytorch or scipy based emulators and the VISCOUS sensitivity methodology.

@linniahawkins cool you are using GPR which is also what I've found useful for the global, annual mean emulation. The ESEm package is another great option for python-based emulation.
