International audienceUnderstanding the West African monsoon (WAM) dynamics in the mid-Holocene (MH) is a crucial issue in cli- mate modelling, because numerical models typically fail to reproduce the extensive precipitation suggested by proxy evidence. This discrepancy is largely due to unrealistic imposed land surface cover and aerosols. Numerical experiments are conducted by imposing a “green Sahara”, along with a reduced dust concentration in the atmo- sphere, coherently with the MH environment in the region, and the atmospheric dynamics response and impact on precipitation are investigated. The response of the WAM system to the imposed conditions shows a dramatic augmentation of the precipitation across West Africa up to the Mediterran...
