ABSTRACT We examine the ability of an ensemble 10 Regional Climate Models ( RCMs ), driven by ERA ‐Interim reanalysis, in skillfully reproducing key features present‐day precipitation and temperature (1990–2008) over West Africa. explore a wide range time scales spanning seasonal climatologies, annual cycles interannual variability, number spatial covering Sahel, Gulf Guinea entire find that show acceptable performance simulating distribution main features. The occurrence African Monsoon...
We examine the impact of +1.5 °C and +2 global warming levels above pre-industrial on consecutive dry days (CDD) wet (CWD), two key indicators for extreme precipitation seasonal drought. This is done using climate projections from a multi-model ensemble 25 regional model (RCM) simulations. The RCMs take boundary conditions ten models (GCMs) under RCP8.5 scenario. define CDD as maximum number with rainfall amount less than 1 mm CWD more mm. differences in representations change CWD, at 1.5 2...
Abstract Understanding the regional impact of future climate change is one major global challenges this century. This study investigated possible effects on malaria in West Africa near (2006–2035) and far (2036–2065) under two representative concentration pathway (RCP) scenarios (RCP4.5 RCP8.5), compared to an observed evaluation period (1981–2010). Projected rainfall temperature were obtained from coordinated downscaling experiment (CORDEX) simulations Rossby Centre Regional Atmospheric...
The first phase of the Nigerian Micrometeorological Experiment (NIMEX-1) was concluded between 15 February and 10 March 2004, at an agricultural site within campus Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife, Nigeria (7o33\'N, 4o33\'E). multi-institutional project aimed determining surface energy balance a tropical wet dry location West Africa. field observations made fell transition from to season area, as such, conditions varied extremes. An integrated measurement system comprising various...
This study investigates the future climatic impacts of different percentages trees/shrubs, C4 and C3 plant functional types (PFTs) over West Africa region. The ratio co-existence among PFTs was done as a representation agri-silviculture practices Nine sensitivity experiments were carried out with regional climate model (RegCM4) driven by Global Climate Model (HADGEM2-ES) outputs. These along Guinea Savana zone using both prescribed dynamic vegetation options model. simulated seasonal...
