Regional climate centres (RCC) across Africa are vital communicators of hydrometeorological early warnings. In our latest climate services study, authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…, we show the current status of services provided by the Central African RCC. 🌍🌧️

2-h poster sessions with beer& sake are a #GEWEX-OSC highlight! Great seeing our authors, like @JoshTalib, who published on soil moisture-atmosphere feedbacks in the Tibetan Plateau with us doi.org/10.1007/s00376-023-2…. Excited about his new research interests. Good job! @GEWEX_WCRP

Rising temperatures will have profound consequences on African health in particular an increased in vector-borne diseases.

Although landfall is not expected, #Ialy is passing closer to the coast of Kenya than any previous tropical storm in the historical record whilst on its unusual track northwards.

(4) Hence, when we compare the effect of climate change on malaria we get different results when using parameterised or explicit convection. For model with high sensitivity to temp, temperature changes increase malaria over highlands. Meanwhile in VECTRI, rainfall changes is key;

(5) Finally, as climate and malaria modelling communities make huge advances through increased computational resource and AI, we must not forget to use both community efforts to ensure the best predictions are used to support policy planning and health decision-making.

Not one, not two, but five(!) @HydroJules internships available this summer.
Whilst every project is great, I'm slightly biased towards mine, @DrEJ_astrogeo and Conni Klein's project on predicting sub-seasonal variability of Indian storms.
Any questions, just ask! @UK_CEH
