Reconstructing the Geomagnetic Field in West Africa: First Absolute Intensity Results from Burkina Faso
We present absolute geomagnetic intensities from iron smelting furnaces discovered at the metallurgical site of Korsimoro, Burkina Faso. Up to now, archaeologists recognized four different types of furnaces based on different construction methods, which were related to four subsequent time periods. Additionally, radiocarbon ages obtained from charcoal confine the studied furnaces to ages rangin...
متن کاملCOVID-19 Outbreak in Africa: Lessons and Insights from the West African Ebola Virus Disease Epidemics
Over the years, the African continent has had to battle several outbreaks of infectious diseases in different countries. Some of the most deadly were the Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreaks that occurred in West Africa between 2014 and 2016 affecting Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone and, more recently, from 2018 to 2020 in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). In the era of the COVID-19 pand...
متن کاملGeomagnetic field variations at dip equatorial latitudes of West Africa
A comprehensive study of geomagnetic field variations has been carried out at the dip equatorial latitudes of West Africa. The data obtained during the 1993 French participation in the International Equatorial Electrojet Year experiment in Africa was used for the analysis. Only the quiet condition was examined. Variation in the three geomagnetic field elements (H, D, and Z) showed more variabil...

متن کاملA New Geomagnetic Field Model for Southern Africa Based on 2005 Ground Survey Data
Geomagnetic field observations over southern Africa, including countries like South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana, were conducted during October and November 2005 as part of a collaborative project, called COMPASS (COmprehensive Magnetic Processes under the African Southern Sub-continent) between the Hermanus Magnetic Observatory (HMO) in South Africa and the GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam (GFZ) ...
