Responding to the threats of climate change by cities requires taking relevant actions that will communicate future conditions in reliable and effective manner for sustainable and transformational climate actions. As the ...

The Ocean and Atmosphere interaction is a complex system that requires particular attention in coastal upwelling systems due to their nutrient supply, biological productivity, influence on local weather patterns and regional ...

This study aimed to evaluate the ability of selected RCMs and GCMs of CORDEX-CORE in reproducing the spatio-temporal patterns of some climatic variables, analyse the future climate scenarios over West Africa sub-region and ...

Intense multi-day wet spells, characterized by prolonged heavy rainfall, significantly influence West Africa’s hydroclimate, driving flood risks and shaping socio-economic vulnerabilities. However, their dynamics remain ...

Reducing discrepancies in the simulation of water and energy fluxes remains a key challenge in accurately representing surface water flux processes, particularly in regions with limited observational data. This study ...

In the context of increasing climate change and variability, reliable climate seasonal forecasts play critical role in agricultural planning. Recurring droughts, erratic rainfall, and limited adaptive capacity in the Sahel ...

A lot of research has been done to understand and improve the relationship between land use and land cover modification vis-a-vis their interaction with the West African climate variability and climate change. However, ...

Land Use Land Cover (LULC) in Sub-Sahara Africa has undergone rapid transformation in the last century. So comprehending the impact of land use land cover change and its interaction with the atmosphere by means of modeling, ...

Rainfall is a major ingredient for economic development for most West African countries. It has serious implications on the socio-economic activities because more than 95% of its agricultural activities are rainfed and ...

This study investigates the potential impact of climate change and variability on electricity demand under different Global Warming Levels (GWL1.5, GWL2.0, GWL2.5, and GWL3.0). First, to assess the sensitivity of electricity ...
