I’ve noticed that Harmattan seems less intense in recent years. I wonder whether changing weather patterns and climate change could be affecting its timing and intensity, and what that might mean for agriculture.

We’re entering the Harmattan season again.🌬️→🇳🇬
The air becomes cooler, drier, and dustier as dry winds carry dust from the Sahara across West Africa.
Honestly, I’m not a fan of this season. 😩 The dry, dusty air always leaves me dealing with nasal congestion.
Give me the rainy season instead! 🌧️

[My sincere thoughts to those on those the Nepal/Tibet border so very effected by the recent GLOF-style flooding; the loss of your family and friends – and ‘things’ – must be so very hard!
May the missing individuals return safely. 🙏]

“What happens when communities face 'too much water' during the monsoon and 'too little water' during the dry season? [Their] research in Dudhauli and Siraha municipalities [Nepal] shows that floods and droughts are not merely environmental challenges; rather, they interact with existing inequalities and vulnerabilities, intensifying conflicts over water and land resources.
From upstream-downstream tensions following flood damage and changing water flows to competition over wells and handpumps during periods of scarcity, the findings show that hydro-climatic extremes often act as amplifiers of existing social, economic, and political vulnerabilities.
The study underscores the importance of moving beyond managing climatic hazards alone towards conflict-sensitive and equitable water governance that addresses structural inequalities, strengthens local adaptive capacities, and supports fair water allocation and conflict resolution…”

Can mankind produce artificial rain? How can it be done?

It's hot & dry in #wsanecterritory. It feels early this year.... The ephemeral ponds have dried up, seeds are rattling in their pods. When the cool wet forest friends come seeking a moist spot in your flowerbeds it's time to be extra careful about fire. #Pacifictreefrog was perched on my stick fence when I came home from work. I sang them a little song. Offered some water. Then left them alone. In the morning they were gone. #treefrog #treefrogs #frog #frogs #dryseason #夏 ＃かえる ＃蛙 ＃frosch
