East African aridification during the past 8 million years is frequently invoked as a driver of
large-scale shifts in vegetation and the evolution of new animal lineages, including …

Southern Africa has been strongly affected by ongoing climate change in recent decades.
Rainfall variability is modulated by regional patterns of moisture advection and convergence …

The unique geography of the Mozambique Channel largely results from the mountainous
island of Madagascar, the fourth largest island in the world by area, extending 13 degrees of …

Drylines occur regularly during summer over the interior of sub‐tropical southern Africa. The
highest frequency of drylines is over the western interior where it is also climatologically …

A climatology of synoptic drylines on the subtropical southern African interior plateau (SAP)
is developed using ERA5 reanalysis specific humidity and surface temperature gradients …

The Turkana low-level jet (LLJ) is an intrinsic part of the African climate system. It is the
principle conduit for water vapor transport to the African interior from the Indian Ocean, and …

Rising surface air temperatures, coupled with delays in the onset of austral summer rains
and increased fuel load have amplified forest fire risk over southern Africa. This study …

Rainfall over the southern African tropical boundary is highly variable, particularly around
the onset of the summer rains. However, understanding of the causes of variability in onset …

An average of 12 drylines are associated with thunderstorm development (convective
drylines) during December in the western plateau of subtropical southern Africa. During …
