Higher PM 10 concentrations are projected in West Africa under SSP126 and SSP585 scenarios, indicating significant future dust events.
The WRF model simulations reveal larger increases in dust levels during both winter and summer seasons, linked to changing meteorological conditions.
A weaker African Easterly Jet and reduced humidity in the lower troposphere could lead to increased climate injustice and health risks in West Africa.
Future projections suggest that changes in Saharan dust and climate may have negative health impacts, particularly for vulnerable populations.
