Abstract
The major objectives of this research were to evaluate both the motion and thermodynamic fields for the atmosphere over West Africa, and to relate these quantities to the weather patterns during the West African Monsoon Experiment (WAMEX) of 1979. The results obtained here have made significant contributions to the synoptic-scale (with typical horizontal length scale (1000km) circulation patterns and atmospheric energetics over the sub-region during a particular monsoon season.
