Building a field- and model-based climatology of local water and energy cycles in the cultivated Sahel – annual budgets and seasonality
In the sub-Saharan Sahel, energy and water cycling at the land surface is pivotal for the regional climate, water resources and land productivity, yet it is still very poorly documented. As a step towards a comprehensive climatological description of surface fluxes in this area, this study provides...
