An Intercomparison of Simulated Rainfall and Evapotranspiration Associated with a Mesoscale Convective System over West Africa

➢ High variability of the CSSV populations in West Africa : a complex of different viral species is responsible for the Cacao swollen shoot disease. It remains to describe

This study highlights how CMIP5 models represent the annual cycle of rainfall characteristics over West Africa, focusing on the timing of the monsoon season (onset, cessation),

Histograms showing the relative frequency (vertical axis) of the various normalised soil moisture observations (horizontal axis) and predictions for the years 2003-2005 for the

Comparison of the runoff ratio (ratio of total runoff to rainfall) to the ratio of latent heat to net radiation flux. Each dot represents an LSM simula- tion averaged over the

How- ever, during the propagation phase through the stratiform re- gion, an upward positive leader – probably issued from a bidirectional leader triggered just above the positive

The study reveals a number of regional features that stand out during the analysis when the duration of the mesoscale convective systems or its distance of propagation is factored
