Relationship between the diurnal cycle and the MCSs life duration? For each type of precipitating system? AEWs modulate the propagation of MCSs to the west. Role of MCSs on AEWs? A cold pool associated to a MCS in pushes humidity to the north and favors dust emission. Effect of the ensemble of cold pools? Sensitivity of dynamics to dust radiative effect, preliminary results (not shown)
