## Abstract The Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) monthly precipitation exhibits a significant negative trend during 1979–2004 over southern tropical Africa from the Congo River Basin to the east coast. This trend appears as a more than 20% drop beginning in 1992 in the 6‐year and 9‐y

Two earthquakes occurred in the Congo Basin in March and April 1998. These two events are reported to have comparable size (5.5 m b ) and nearly the same epicentral locations, far from the western branch of the East African Rift System (EARS). The P-wave groups of these two earthquakes as recorded a
