TL;DR: The authors performed a regional climate model (RCM) intercomparison using the novel multi-model RCM data set from the Ensembles-based Predictions of Climate Changes and Their Impacts (ENSEMBLES) and African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analyses (AMMA) projects.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors recommend key strategies to address these challenges, including stronger integration of sciences and ocean-observing systems, improved science-policy interfaces, new partnerships supported by a new ocean-climate finance system, and improved ocean literacy and education to modify social norms and behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unifying view of climate change in the Sahel linking intra-seasonal, interannual and longer time scales
TL;DR: The authors proposed a reinterpretation of the oceanic influence on the climate of the African Sahel that is consistent across observations, 20th century simulations and 21st century projections, and resolved the uncertainty in projections of precipitation change in this region: continued warming of the global tropical oceans increases the threshold for convection, potentially drying tropical land, but this upped ante can be met if sufficient moisture is supplied in monsoon flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multimodel GCM-RCM Ensemble-Based Projections of Temperature and Precipitation over West Africa for the Early 21st Century
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of a set of four regional climate models (RCMs) driven by two global GCMs (for a total of 4 different GCM-RCM pairs) in simulating present day and future climate over West Africa is analyzed and compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Projected changes of summer monsoon extremes and hydroclimatic regimes over West Africa for the twenty-first century
Ismaila Diallo,Ismaila Diallo,Ismaila Diallo,Filippo Giorgi,Abdoulaye Deme,Moustapha Tall,Laura Mariotti,Amadou Thierno Gaye +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used two CORDEX-Africa simulations performed with the regional model RegCM4 to characterize the projected changes in extremes and hydroclimatic regimes associated with the West African Monsoon (WAM).
