Aerosols and Precipitation Over Africa

Aerosols and Precipitation Over Africa by Akintomide A. Akinsanola and Adeyemi A. Adebiyi is an authoritative exploration of how tiny particles in the atmosphere shape rainfall across the African continent. Perfect for researchers, policymakers, and anyone invested in African climate resilience, this book synthesizes observational data, remote sensing, and modeling to reveal links between aerosols and precipitation from the Sahel to Southern Africa.

Discover clear, region-focused analysis that connects urban and dust aerosols to seasonal shifts in rainfall patterns across West, East, Central, and Southern Africa. The authors translate complex atmospheric science into actionable insights—showing how biomass burning, desert dust, and pollution influence cloud formation, monsoon dynamics, and extreme events. Case studies grounded in African climates make the findings especially relevant for climate adaptation, agriculture planning, and hydrological forecasting.

What sets this volume apart is its blend of rigorous science and practical relevance: accessible explanations, regional maps, and evidence-based conclusions that inform both academic study and on-the-ground decision-making. Whether you’re a climatologist tracking trends in the Sahel, an environmental manager responding to changing rainfall regimes, or a student seeking a definitive reference on aerosols in Africa, this book equips you with the knowledge to understand and act.
