  abstract = {{W}e review the main studies on mesoscale water cycle from the {A}frican {M}onsoon {M}ultidisciplinary {A}nalysis ({AMMA}) project. {T}he estimations of precipitation and evapotranspiration, which are the coupling terms between the atmosphere and the surface water cycles, are addressed. {A}dvances in the evaluation of the various components of atmospheric and surface water budgets are reported, and the yearly surface budgets for the {B}enin and {N}iger {AMMA} mesoscale sites are given as examples. {T}he major outcomes and limitations of atmosphere-surface model coupling exercises are also reported. {T}he paper concludes with suggestions on the research directions on which the community should make future efforts.},
