Abstract We present a Lagrangian framework for identifying mechanisms that control the isotopic composition of mid‐tropospheric water vapor in Sahel region during West African Monsoon 2016. In this mixing between contrasting air masses, strong convective activity, as well surface and rain evaporation lead to high variability distribution stable isotopologues. Using backward trajectories based on high‐resolution isotope‐enabled model data, we obtain information not only about source regions...

Abstract. Due to its dryness, the subtropical free troposphere plays a critical role in radiative balance of Earth's climate system. But complex interactions dynamical and physical processes controlling variability moisture budget this sensitive region atmosphere are still not fully understood. Stable water isotopes can provide important information about several latter processes, namely subsidence drying, turbulent mixing, dry moist convective moistening. In study, we use high-resolution...
