Impact of soil-vegetation-atmosphere interactions on the spatial rainfall distribution in the Central Sahel

In a Regional Climate Model (RCM) the interactions between the land surface and the atmosphere are described by a Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere-Transfer Model (SVAT). In the presented study two SVATs of different complexity (TERRA-ML and VEG3D) are coupled to the RCM COSMO-CLM (CCLM) to investigate the...
