## Abstract This article describes and validates a new conceptual model for understanding Sahel rainfall variability. This conceptual model provides a framework that can readily incorporate and synthesize the roles played by the oceans, the African landmass and local meteorological factors. The mos

The lack of appropriate data has long been a major obstacle to the study of the Sahelian rainfall at the event scale. In this paper, use is made of the EPSAT-Niger recording rain-gauge data to characterize the convective rain events of the central Sahel. Although some considerations lead to the iden
A comparative study has been conducted of the diurnal variations of 3-hourly rainfall for Niamey, located in Niger, in the West African Sahel among four extreme precipitation periods: the wet periods of the 1950s and late 1980s to early 1990s versus the drought periods of the early 1970s and 1980s.
## Abstract The original article to which this Erratum refers was published in Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society 133:2065โ2084.
Climate change, resulting from an increase in global temperatures, is likely to have a large impact on glaciers and glacier meltwater during the course of the present century resulting in significant contributions to sea level rise. Globally, glaciers are in retreat, partly as a response to the retu
