Ouhechou et al (2023)

Ouhechou, A. et al (2023) Inter-comparison and validation against in-situ measurements of satellite estimates of incoming solar radiation for Central Africa: From the annual means to the diurnal cycles, Atmospheric Research, 287,106711. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosres.2023.106711.
Abstract: This study pictures for the first time incoming solar radiation mean evolution in Central Africa, intercomparing 8 gridded products (namely CERES-EBAF, CERES-SYN1deg, TPDC, CMSAF SARAH-2, CMSAF (…)

Camberlin et al (2023)

Camberlin, P. et al. (2023) The representation of dry-season low-level clouds over Western Equatorial Africa in reanalyses and historical CMIP6 simulations. Climate Dynamics. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00382-023-06714-w
Abstract: Within the equatorial zone, Western Equatorial Africa (WEA) has a record low sunshine duration during the June–September dry season due to the persistence of low clouds. This study examines the ability of two reanalysis products (ERA5 and MERRA-2) and eight CMIP6 (…)

Abstract : The tropical cloud forest ecosystem in Western Equatorial Africa (WEA) is known to be sensitive to the presence of an extensive and persistent low-level stratiform cloud deck during the long dry season from June to September (JJAS). Here we present a new climatology of the diurnal (…)

Abstract: This study examines the diurnal to interannual variations of the stratiform cloud cover in May–October (1971–2019) from a 3-hourly station database and from ERA5 reanalyses over western equatorial Africa (WEA). The main diurnal variations of the local-scale fraction and (…)
