WASCAL Science Symposium (WASS) 2022

Date: 12/05/2022 - 12/09/2022

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of WASCAL (https://wascal.org/), a symposium was held at the WASCAL Competence Center in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, and online to both summarize scientific accomplishments from that time and present work currently underway.

Within the WASCAL WRAP2.0 LANDSURF project (https://wascal.org/research-innovations/wascal-research-action-plan-wrap-2-0/) we were also represented with the following contributions:
