CORDEX Africa
Scientists from all over the world are working on the African modeling domain. The different groups are employing different regional climate models as to establish a common ensemble of climate projections as large as possible.

An evaluation run was performed by KIT Karlsruhe using ERA-Interim data (Dee et al., 2011) as boundary forcing for the time period 1989 - 2008. To establish an ensemble of climate projections different forcing GCMs and scenarios listed in the table below were employed.
