Black Carbon and West African Monsoon precipitation: observations and simulations

Black Carbon and West African Monsoon precipitation: observations and simulations

We have recently investigated large-scale co-variability between aerosol and precipitation and other meteorological variables in the West African Monsoon (WAM) region using long term satellite observations and reanalysis data. In this study we compared the observational results to a global model...
