متن کاملHeamatological Indices of Sahel and West African Dwarf Goats Vaccinated Against Pestes despetits Ruminants (PPR) Adua
This project determined the effect of Peste des petit ruminants (PPR) vaccine on the haematological indices of two breeds of goats (Sahel and West African Dwarf) and evaluated the effects of breed and sex on the haematological parameters. Haematological indices of the initial sample (comprising ten Sahel and ten WAD breeds) were evaluated prior to vaccination. Thirteen of the twenty goats were ...
متن کاملDesertification, Drought, and Surface Vegetation: An Example from the West African Sahel
Many assumptions have been made about the nature and character of desertification in West Africa. This paper examines the history of this issue, reviews the current state of our knowledge concerning the meteorological aspects of desertification, and presents the results of a select group of analyses related to this question. The common notion of desertification is of an advancing “desert,” a ge...
متن کاملThe 1983 drought in the West Sahel: a case study

This SST dipolelike pattern was not characteristic of 1983, the third driest summer of the twentieth century in the Sahel. This study presents e...
