Comment les pluies ont-elles varié depuis que des mesures sont faites en Afrique de l'Ouest ? Les variations récentes sont-elles exceptionnelles, ou bien les hommes en ont-ils subies d'aussi importantes durant les derniers millénaires ? La pluie est un paramètre très fluctuant, à la fois dans l'espace et dans le temps. Ce livre décrit quelques méthodes pour mesurer la, hauteur des précipitations, les variations mensuelles et annuelles de celles-ci. Les pluies sont liées à des phénomènes propres à l'Afrique de l'Ouest, les ondes d'Est et les lignes de grains, notamment, dont l'auteur donne les caractéristiques principales. Un chapitre est consacré à l'exposé des causes possibles de la sécheresse des trente années écoulées, un autre à la description des variations des précipitations dans un passé plus lointain. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux étudiants en climatologie ainsi qu'aux responsables du développement de l'Afrique de l'Ouest. Un glossaire définit les termes propres au vocabulaire de la météorologie.
