Seasonal prediction of Horn of Africa long rains using machine learning: The pitfalls of preselecting correlated predictors

The Horn of Africa is highly vulnerable to droughts and floods, and reliable long-term forecasting is a key part of building resilience. However, the prediction of the “long rains” season (March–May) is particularly challenging for dynamical climate prediction models. Meanwhile, the potential for ma...
