Evaluation of climate model aerosol seasonal and spatial variability over Africa using AERONET

The sensitivity of climate models to the characterization of African aerosol particles is poorly understood. Africa is a major source of dust and biomass burning aerosols and this represents an important research gap in understanding the impact of aerosols on radiative forcing of the climate sys...
