  abstract = {{I}n the {W}est {A}frican {S}ahel, two paradoxical hydrological behaviors have occurred during the last five decades. {T}he first paradox was observed during the 1968-1990s {G}reat {D}rought' period, during which runoff significantly increased. {T}he second paradox appeared during the subsequent period of rainfall recovery (i.e., since the 1990s), during which the runoff coefficient continued to increase despite the general re-greening of the {S}ahel. {T}his paper reviews and synthesizes the literature on the drivers of these paradoxical behaviors, focusing on recent works in the {W}est {A}frican {S}ahelo/{S}udanian strip, and upscaling the hydrological processes through an analysis of recent data from two representative areas of this region. {T}his paper helps better determine the respective roles played by {L}and {U}se/{L}and {C}over {C}hanges ({LULCC}), the evolution of rainfall intensity and the occurrence of extreme rainfall events in these hydrological paradoxes. {B}oth the literature review and recent data converge in indicating that the first {S}ahelian hydrological paradox was mostly driven by {LULCC}, while the second paradox has been caused by both {LULCC} and climate evolution, mainly the recent increase in rainfall intensity.},
