“…However, the functioning of the Bdipole^type is not constant and other situations can exist, in particular as seen in the model of Leroux (1996) for the contemporary period (approximately the twentieth century) (Fig. 2).…”

“…In addition to the situations (1) and (2), associated with a Bdipole^system, there is also a third situation, atypical and rarely seen during the twentieth century, with substantially less rain in the Sahel and also in the Guinean band, but, in contrast, substantially elevated rainfall in the intermediate band situated north of the equatorial forest and corresponding to the SudanoGuinean zone, where the relatively forested savannahs dominate. Leroux (1996) believes that this particular situation could result from a simultaneous strengthening of the subtropical anticyclones to the north and south of the Equator, resulting in a blockage of the ITCZ at this level. In following the hypothesis of this author and from the thermodynamics that direct the subtropical anticyclone activity, this particular case should, in principle, result from relatively widespread cold conditions that could also Leroux 1996, fig.…”

“…Some studies invoke an increase of the wind intensity at the LGM in Northwest Africa [e.g., Sarnthein et al , 1981; Leroux , 1996; Martinez et al , 1999]. The expected effect of this higher wind intensity should be an intensification of the upwelling, i.e., the flux of subsurface water upwelled to the surface.…”

“…The second panel is a hypothetical map of the UI in the same area for the LGM (UI‐G), constructed on the basis of previous map UI‐IG, replacing the summer period by the spring‐autumn feature. This can be related with the dashed lines on the background map, which represent the corresponding ITCZ position between summer (ITCZ S ‐G) and winter (ITCZ W ‐G) for the glacial period [adapted from Leroux , 1996].…”

“…Toutefois, la plupart des auteurs évoquent aussi des intensités ponctuelles parfois de quelques minutes, ramenées à des intensités horaires équiva-lant à 50 mm et 100 mm/h et nous n'avons évidemment pas pu tenir compte de ces situations météorologiques. Nous avons dû nous limiter à l'étude des totaux quotidiens supé-rieurs à 50 et 100 mm, mais en haute montagne, dans les Alpes soumises aux flux d'ouest ou à l'advection d'air en provenance de la Méditerranée, les totaux quotidiens correspondant à des précipitations de forte intensité et de faible fréquence atteignent toujours des valeurs importantes, largement supérieures à 50 mm/ 24 h (Francou, 1988 ;Leroux, 1996). L'étude systématique des journées à précipitations abondantes (> 50 mm/24 h : fig.…”
