Islam West Africa Collection (IWAC)
<p>Directed by <a href="https://www.frederickmadore.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Frédérick Madore</a>, the <a href="https://islam.zmo.de/s/westafrica/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Islam West Africa Collection</em> (IWAC)</a> is a collaborative, open-access digital database that currently contains over 5,000 archival documents, newspaper articles, Islamic publications of various kinds, audio and video recordings, and photographs on Islam and Muslims in Burkina Faso, Benin, Niger, Nigeria, Togo and Côte d'Ivoire. Most of the documents are in French, but some are also available in Hausa, Arabic, Dendi, and English. The site also indexes over 800 references to relevant books, book chapters, book reviews, journal articles, dissertations, theses, reports and blog posts. This project, hosted by the <a href="https://www.zmo.de/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leibniz-Zentrum Moderner Orient (ZMO)</a> and funded by the Berlin Senate Department for Science, Health and Care, is a continuation of the award-winning <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20231207083222/https://islam.domains.uflib.ufl.edu/s/bf/page/home" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Islam Burkina Faso Collection</em></a> created in 2021 in collaboration with <a href="https://librarypress.domains.uflib.ufl.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LibraryPress@UF</a>.</p> <p>This dataset contains all the metadata of the items in the Collection, the Jupyter notebooks that were used to create the visualisations that showcase the possibilities of <a href="https://islam.zmo.de/s/westafrica/page/digital-humanities" target="_blank" rel="noopener">digital humanities</a> with the IWAC, and a copy of the spreadsheets that were used to create the <a href="https://islam.zmo.de/s/westafrica/page/exhibits" target="_blank" rel="noopener">digital exhibits</a> using <a href="https://timeline.knightlab.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Timeline JS</a>.</p>

<p>This dataset provides the tabular U-Pb data on zircon presented in Robert et al. 2023 'Evidence for large disturbances of the Ediacaran geomagnetic field from West Africa', Precambrian Research, 394, 107095.</p> <p>The data are provided both as an xls formatted as in the original publication (in Table 1), and in a condensed .csv. Please the README file for a description of the columns of the csv.</p>
Regional climate simulations of surface precipitation and temperature for West Africa using COSMO-CLM based on MPI-LR (ECHAM6) and RCP4.5
<p>Regional climate model COSMO-CLM (CCLM) simulations with a horizontal resolution of 0.11° (approx. 12 km) for sub-Saharan West Africa under current and future climate conditions. The CCLM is driven by initial and lateral boundary conditions from the MPI-LR (ECHAM6), based on the emission scenario RCP4.5. The downscaled MPI-LR (ECHAM6) data for surface precipitation (P) and surface temperature (Tmin, Tmax) are provided for the baseline period (1981-2010) and two future time slices, i.e. the 2021–2050 and the 2071–2100 period. </p> <p> </p>
