The role of carbonaceous aerosols on short‐term variations of precipitation over North Africa

Subtropical North Africa has been subject to extensive droughts in the late 20th century, linked to changes in the sea surface temperature (SST). However, climate models forced by observed SSTs cannot reproduce the magnitude of the observed rainfall reduction. Here, we propose aerosol indirect effec...
