Eastern Africa exhibits bimodal rainfall consisting of long rains (March–May) and short rains
(October–December), changes in which have profound socioeconomic and environmental …

Abstract Short-duration (1–3 h) rainfall extremes can cause serious damage to societies
through rapidly developing (flash) flooding and are determined by complex, multifaceted …

11.21 for hot extremes (HOT EXT.), heavy precipitation (HEAVY PRECIP.), agriculture and …

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

Figure 2. Timeseries of Dipole Mode Index (a, b) and SST anomaly (c), air temperature
anomaly (d), precipitation anomaly (e) and 850hPa wind anomaly (f) for OND 2019. In (f) the …

Despite the long-lasting and widespread drought in the Sahel, flood events did punctuate in
the past. The concern about floods remains dwarf on the international research and policy …

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 …

In the coming few decades, projected increases in global temperature and humidity are
generally expected to exacerbate human exposure to climate extremes (eg, humid-heat and …

Semiarid rangelands are identified as at high risk of degradation due to anthropogenic
pressure and climate change. Through tracking timelines of degradation we aimed to …

Pan-Africa convection-permitting regional climate model simulations have been performed
to study the impact of high resolution and the explicit representation of atmospheric moist …
