Multimodel GCM-RCM Ensemble-Based Projections of Temperature and Precipitation over West Africa for the Early 21st Century
Figure 10
Averaged JJAS difference between the future (A1B: 2031–2050) and the reference period (1981–2000) of precipitation from: (a) ECHAM5, (b) RegCM3, (c) REMO, (d) Ens/ECHAM5 (mean ensemble of RCMs driven by ECHAM5), (e) HadCM3, (f) RCA, (g) HadRM3P, and (h) Ens/HadCM3 (mean ensemble of RCM driven by HadCM3). Precipitation change are in % of present day values and areas where reference mean precipitation is less than 0.5 mm/day have been masked out. Contours represent where the changes are significant at 90% level.
