Influence of coupled ocean-atmosphere phenomena on the Greater Horn of Africa droughts and their implications

Drought-like humanitarian crises in the Greater Horn of Africa (GHA) are increasing despite recent progress in drought monitoring and prediction efforts. Notwithstanding these efforts, there remain challenges stemming from uncertainty in drought prediction, and the inflexibility and limited bufferin...
