IFAECI

WP2 focuses on the assessment of the predictability associated with climate variability in SSA on sub-seasonal to decadal timescales. This implies the use of currently operational global climate models and regional climate models as well as on the development of new prediction tools for the regional climate and its impact on agriculture and hydrology over the regions in which WP0 case studies will focus. An exploration of the predictability changes associated with land-use changes and land-surface processes in Amazon and SSA on longer timescales is also included in this WP.
