Presentation Transcript

  1. Climatology of African Precipitation(from GPCP for the period 1996-2009) Brant Liebmann NOAA/Earth System Research Laboratory, and CIRES Climate Diagnostics Center, Boulder, Colorado Leila Carvalho, Chris Funk Here Ileana Bladé Departamentd’AstronomiaiMeteorologia, Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain

  2. View Seasonality in terms of wet season variations (start, end, rate, etc.)

  3. A = “Anomalous Accumulation” R = Precipitation on day = Daily Annual Climatology (Climatological Total / 365)

  4. Monthly Climatology Standard Deviation

  5. Composite of GPCP daily precipitation estimates (mm/day) relative to onset at 3.5W, 12.5N.

  6. From Wheeler and Kiladis (1999)

  7. Shading: GPCP (mm/day) 200 mb flow Shading: “Kelvin- Filtered” OLR (W/m2) 850 mb flow (contour int. ½ that at 200)
