    Sahel apparently being an interesting place whose climate is sensitive to global climate patterns.

    Yes it goes through a cyclical motion of growing Savannah and then drought leading to desert - one of major reasons of human’s becoming bipedal was the decrease of tree coverage in africa. In fact in the future with rising temperatures the Sahel is likely to expand again due to more precipitation due to warmer oceans.
