Atmospheric composition of West Africa: highlights from the AMMA international program

With more one area in which ASECNA enjoys real advantages, than 21 active stations Table 2, there were over 200 through its economies of scale: by combining the radiosonde operators

Comparing the MOPITT data for August 2006 with Au- gusts of previous years (2000–2008, excluding 2001 for which there is insufficient data) (Fig. 6, bottom panel), it can be seen

During the intensive observation periods of AMMA in 2006, high-resolution radiosonde observations at six sta- tions in West Africa, two on the equator coast, Douala and Abidjan,

An overview of the 2006 summer monsoon season at large and regional scales is presented here covering the topics of the atmospheric dynamics and its links with the evolution of

The temporal evolution of biomass burning plume con- stituents during austral winter 2018 and austral winter 2019 are shown together with the diel distribution of hourly av-
