Assessing climate change impacts on sorghum and millet yields in the Sudanian and Sahelian savannas of West Africa
Sub-Saharan West Africa is a vulnerable region where a better quantification and understanding of the impact of climate change on crop yields is urgently needed. Here, we have applied the process-based crop model SARRA-H calibrated and validated over multi-year field trials and surveys at eight cont...
