Influence of Latent Heating over the Asian and Western Pacific Monsoon Region on Sahel Summer Rainfall

Abstract There has been an interdecadal shift towards a less humid state in Sahel summer rainfall since the 1960s. The decreased Sahel summer rainfall was associated with enhanced summer latent heating over the South Asian and western Pacific summer monsoon region and anomalous zonal-vertical cell o...
