this is a historical analysis of climate data from African nations. # climate-challenge-week0 this is a historical analysis of climate data from African nations. # Climate Change Analysis - Week 0 Author: Hiwot Fikadu Status: Completed (Task 1 & Task 2) An analysis of climate trends (Temperature & Precipitation) across Ethiopia, Kenya, Sudan, Nigeria, and Tanzania (2015-2026). #Project Structure - `/data`: Local CSV datasets for Ethiopia, Kenya, Nigeria, Sudan, and Tanzania. - `/notebooks`: Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) and Visualizations. - `/src`: Modular Python scripts for data cleaning. - `.github/workflows`: CI/CD pipeline for environment validation. ## Goals 1. Clean NASA POWER data (Handling -999 sentinels). 2. Reconstruct time-series dates from Year/DOY. 3. Compare regional climate stability across 5 African nations. #Steps - Data Cleaning: Handled NASA -999 placeholders and converted Year/DOY to timestamps. - EDA:Analyzed temperature distributions and compared regional climate stability. - Professional background: As a Health Informatics professional, I focused on identifying temperature volatility that impacts regional health outcomes.
