Abstract: AbstractGreat effort is made to address heat waves (HWs) in developed countries because of their devastating impacts on society, economy, and environment. However, HWs are still understudied over developing countries. This ...
Daily Weather Types in February–June (1979–2016) and Temperature Variations in Tropical North Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study investigates to what extent weather types (WTs) computed over tropical North Africa and the tropical North Atlantic Ocean (40°W?40°E, 0°?30°N) are relevant for documenting intraseasonal and interannual ...
