Approximately 10 years ago, convection‐permitting regional climate models (CPRCMs)
emerged as a promising computationally affordable tool to produce fine resolution (1–4 km) …

We provide an assessment of future daily characteristics of African precipitation by explicitly
comparing the results of large ensembles of global (CMIP5, CMIP6) and regional (CORDEX …

East Africa is highly reliant on agriculture and has high rates of soil erosion which negatively
impact agricultural yields. Climate projections suggest that rainfall intensity will increase in …

Numerical‐model‐based forecasts of precipitation exhibit poor skill over northern tropical
Africa when compared with climatology‐based forecasts and with other tropical regions …

Numerical weather-and climate prediction models rely on soil data to accurately model land
surface processes. However, as soil data are produced using soil profiles and maps with …

Improving the simulation of the West African Monsoon (WAM) system is paramount to
increasing confidence in the projections of the region's monsoon rainfall change. This work …

Renewable energy is recognized in Africa as a means for climate change mitigation, but
also to provide access to electricity in sub‐Saharan Africa, where three‐quarters of the …

Aeolus is the first satellite mission to acquire vertical profiles of horizontal line‐of‐sight winds
globally and thus fills an important gap in the Global Observing System, most notably in the …

In atmospheric models with kilometer‐scale grids the resolution approaches the scale of
convection. As a consequence the most energetic eddies in the atmosphere are partially …

Vertical wind shear is known to play a key role in the organization and intensity of
mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) in West and Central Africa. A decadal increase in …
