West African Monsoon Dynamics and Its Control on the Stable Oxygen Isotopic Composition of Precipitation in the Late Cenozoic Open
This study presents an overview of the Late Cenozoic evolution of the West African Monsoon (WAM), and the associated changes in atmospheric dynamics and oxygen isotopic composition of precipitation (δ 18 O p ). This evolution is establishe…

The evolution of African monsoons and its impacts on precipitation seasonality in the late Cenozoic and future climate change Open
The West African Monsoon (WAM) strongly drives precipitation variability and seasonality across continental West Africa and the tropical Eastern Atlantic. However, the evolution of the WAM in the late Cenozoic, in response to changes in ve…

The Leeds Africa Climate Hackathon – experiences of running a hackathon and highlights of results Open
The Leeds Africa Climate Hackathon aimed to generate user-relevant narratives of possible future climate in East and West Africa relevant to hydroelectric power generation and agriculture respectively. Here we discuss how the virtual hacka…

Effects of vertical wind shear on intensities of mesoscale convective systems over West and Central Africa Open
Vertical wind shear is known to play a key role in the organization and intensity of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) in West and Central Africa. A decadal increase in vertical wind shear has recently been linked to a decadal increase i…

Observed Effects of Vertical wind shear on the intensities of Mesoscale Convective Systems in West Africa. Open
<p>Vertical wind shear plays a key role in the organisation and intensification of Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs). In West Africa, the meridional temperature gradient between the hot Sahel and the humid Gulf of Guinea results in…
