Numerical simulations of aerosol radiative effects and their impact on clouds and atmospheric dynamics over southern West Africa

Numerical simulations of aerosol radiative effects and their impact on clouds and atmospheric dynamics over southern West Africa

<p>Southern West Africa (SWA) is undergoing rapid and significant socioeconomic changes associated with a massive increase in air pollution. Still, the impact of atmospheric pollutants, in particular that of aerosol particles, on weather and climate in this region is virtually unexplored....
