 +The set of patterns described in the proposal is detailed [[proposal_patterns|here]].
  
 **Uncertainty Quantification Pattern (UQP)** is the term for workflows and algorithms focussed on uncertainty quantification and propagation or sensitivity analysis. **Uncertainty Quantification Pattern (UQP)** is the term for workflows and algorithms focussed on uncertainty quantification and propagation or sensitivity analysis.

 **Sensitivity Analysis** identifies the model portions of uncertainty coming from each uncertain model parameters or group of parameters (Saltelli, 2001). ​ **Sensitivity Analysis** identifies the model portions of uncertainty coming from each uncertain model parameters or group of parameters (Saltelli, 2001). ​
  
-**Global sensitivity** ​methods ​analyse a modelsensitivity ​across the whole variation range of the input parameters (Sobol, 2001).+**Global sensitivity** analyse ​the sensitivity of a model'output to global variations of its inputs, i.e. across the whole variation range of the input parameters (Sobol, 2001).
  
-**Local sensitivity** methods analyse ​a particular solution of the model output (Saltelli, 2010). ​+**Local sensitivity** methods analyse the sensitivity of a model'​s ​output ​to local variations of its inputs, i.e. in the neighbourhood of a particular input vecto (Saltelli, 2010). ​
  
 **Surrogate models** or **metamodels** are an alternatives to the original code, which produce approximately similar output in a shorter period of time (Owen, 2017). ​ **Surrogate models** or **metamodels** are an alternatives to the original code, which produce approximately similar output in a shorter period of time (Owen, 2017). ​
