  abstract = {{We have investigated with our general circulation model the effect of an
increase of surface albedo over the Sahel on climate. When albedo
increases, the precipitation and evaporation rates are lower. Our
experiment also has shown variations of zonal circulation over the
Sahel: the Tropical Easterly Jet is stronger and easterlies at low
altitude are weaker when the precipitation rate is higher. These
results, in agreement with observations of the changes of circulation
between dry and wet years, suggest that the albedo can play an important
role in the triggering or the maintenance of a drought in the Sahel
through the effects of circulation.
