Validation of complex chemical models relies increasingly on uncertainty propagation and sensitivity analysis with Monte Carlo sampling methods. The utility and accuracy of this approach depend on the proper definition of probability density functions for the uncertain parameters of the model. Taking into account the existing correlations between input parameters is essential to a reliable uncertainty budget for the model outputs. We address here the problem of branching ratios between product channels of a reaction, which are correlated by the unit value of their sum. We compare the uncertainties on predicted time-dependent and equilibrium species concentrations due to input samples, either uncorrelated or explicitly correlated by a Dirichlet distribution. The method is applied to the case of Titan ionospheric chemistry, with the aim of estimating the effect of branching ratio correlations on the uncertainty balance of equilibrium densities in a complex model.
