The aim of this study is to investigate the interaction between West African aerosols and convective, stratiform and shallow clouds, which affect precipitation quality and amount. Gridded satellite observation precipitation ...

West Africa due to its climatological and geographical conditions is an essential domain for the characterization of atmospheric radiative forcing across the globe. This study investigated the interaction between aerosols ...

It is well known that extreme rainfall events that usually devastate the socio-economic activities in West Africa are inadequately simulated by many conventional uniform-grid global climate models, but little is known about ...

Land cover change can influence the LCL height, which in turn affects cloud formation and consequently convective precipitation. This study compares the LCL height over three land cover types (Urban, vegetation, and crop) ...

In Mali, like other developing countries, agropastoralists are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change. This study was conducted to examine the impacts of climate change on crop yields (sorghum and groundnut) ...
