Statistical Downscaling for Precipitation Projections in West Africa

2023-02-14

Abstract excerpt

The West Africa region (5to 20N and 10E to 20W) is particularly vulnerable to climate change due to a combination of unique geographic features, meteorological conditions, and socio-economic factors. Drastic changes in precipitation (e.g., droughts or floods) in the region can have dramatic impacts on rain-fed agriculture, water availability, and disease risks for the region's population. Quantifying these risks r...
