    ABSTRACT Debris‐flow affected area is typically predicted using runout simulations, often estimating the hydrograph from rainfall conditions. However, rainfall is rarely considered when predicting initiation locations, which influence the occurrence number and location. This study proposes a hybrid method combining statistical source‐location prediction based on rainfall conditions and runout simulations inputting the predicted source locations. First, logistic regression is used to predict the spatial probability of debris‐flow initiation with rainfall as an input. Next, Monte Carlo simulation based on the initiation location generated from the rainfall‐based probability yields the spatial distribution of the debris‐flow hit probability. Simulation parameters are systematically determined in advance based on topographic change obtained via aerial LiDAR observations. This method was successfully employed to estimate the spatial distribution of the debris‐flow hit probability at 1‐m resolution for a debris‐flow disaster that occurred in Hiroshima prefecture, Japan, using rainfall data obtained by radar. The simulation time indicated that hit probability can be issued prior to the event for early warning, owing to the adequate lead time of rainfall forecasts and recent developments in computational technology. The hit probability obtained in this study can be also applied to risk quantification based on rainfall conditions.

    <p>For decades, climate models have been used to understand the present and historical climates, especially global climate models (GCMs). They are used to understand the interaction between climate system processes and forecast future climates. However, the issue of low resolution and accuracy often lead to inadequacy in capturing the variations in climate variables related to impact assessment. In order to capture the local climate changes in Hyogo Prefecture of Western Japan, a local climate modelling based on Second Generation Canadian Earth System Model (CanESM2) was applied using the statistical downscaling technique. Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 and 8.5 scenario were used in generating future climate models. The reliability of models was tested with Linear Regression, Pearson correlation, and Cronbach Alpha. Moderate relationship between rainfall data and both RCP scenarios was found in all chosen stations. Spatial analysis outcome showed that there is a possibility of increase in annual rainfall in Hyogo prefecture, where the increase is significant in Northern region. There is a possibility of increase in maximum and minimum temperature in four selected stations due to the increase of greenhouse gas emissions.</p>

    A lack of analytical benchmark solution makes it difficult to verify soil dynamics simulations of nonlinear geotechnical problems. This study makes use of a novel code verification technique, the method of numerically manufactured solutions (MNMS), to overcome such difficulty. Using MNMS, the accuracy of a nonlinear soil dynamics simulation code based on finite element method (FEM) is verified. The orders of the convergence rate of the relative errors with respect to the discretization size are found to be in good agreement with the theoretical values prescribed by the numerical methods.

     Estimation of a damage of sediment-related disaster accompanied with flood, inundation, and sediment supply due to landslides is important to establish a prevention plan and/or evaluate the risk of them. In this study, we have developed a 2D Distributed Rainfall and Sediment Runoff/Inundation Simulator (:DRSRIS) with coupling the 2d rainfall runoff model, inundation flow model, and sediment transport model on the staggered grid which performs on the supercomputer. The model was applied to Haki area, Fukuoka Pref., Japan, where the Kyu-shu heavy rainfall in 2017 took place based on the sediment supply distribution estimated from the actual landslide data. The calculated sediment transport volume was underestimated, however, the calculated results almost corresponded to the inundated area obtained from the survey.

    This paper presents an improvement of a mathematical interpretation of moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method. The mathematical interpretation leads to a mathematical reformulation of MPS (MRMPS) based on Taylor expansions. The improvement of MRMPS in this paper is featured by solving a system of 9 × 9 (or 5 × 5 for two dimensional settings) equations for the gradient vector and for all the components of the Hessian matrix. Numerical experiments with various types of target functions showed that the improved MRMPS possesses a second-order convergence rate for the relative error of the gradient and a first-order convergence rate for the relative error of the Laplacian, in three-dimensional settings with randomly distributed neighboring particles. Moreover, there is no deterioration of accuracy for realistic particle configurations near free surfaces, where the neighboring particles are distributed not only randomly but also one-sided. Further, the aforementioned accuracy of the improved MRMPS can be obtained by using about 40 to 50 neighboring particles considerably less than conventional particle methods. A simplification for the improved MRMPS is also presented with less computational complexity, solving two 3 × 3 systems instead of one 9 × 9 system, at the cost of losing one order of convergence rate of error.

    直接観測機器を用いた雲内部の雨滴粒径分布の把握は,雲物理と降水特性の理解や,リモートセンシングを用いた降雨量推定精度の向上として重要である.気球搭載型でありCCDカメラを備えたビデオゾンデは航空機観測よりも安全性が高いが,粒径クラスごとの観測個数が1個や2個の場合があり,ビデオゾンデで得られる粒子のサンプル数が粒径分布の推定精度に与える影響が懸念される.本研究は,ビデオゾンデ観測から得られた粒径分布とサンプル数の定量的な評価を行うことを目的とする.まず,乱数を発生させた数値実験より,ビデオゾンデのサンプル数と粒径分布パラメータの推定精度の関係を調査した.さらに,ビデオゾンデで推定された粒径分布から計算されたレーダー反射因子Zとディスドロメータから計算されたZを比較した.ビデオゾンデで4分間に70個以上の雨滴が観測された場合,300回の数値実験のうち64%以上で粒径分布の傾きパラメータを推定できていた.6事例中4事例の実際の粒径分布の推定事例において,ビデオゾンデで推定された粒径分布から計算されたZは,2.9dBZ以下の誤差の範囲内でZを推定できた.

    Many scientific and engineering problems, including soil dynamics problems with elasto-plasticity, are involved in solving partial differential equations numerically. The correctness and accuracy of the solutions have to be checked in a rigorous way, i.e., the code used to solve the problems has to be verified. In the field of fluid dynamics, the method of manufactured solutions (MMS) has been proposed and accepted as a de facto standard for code verification. However, we show in this paper that MMS procedures cannot be used directly for soil dynamics problems considering elasto-plasticity. The main difficulty is due to the soil elasto-plasticity which is generally formulated in a rate form coupled by an algebraic constraint (the yield surface). Instead, we propose the method of numerically manufactured solutions (MNMS) for verifying elasto-plastic problems. The concepts and the workflows of MNMS are explained in detail and two simple demonstrations are presented. Though the numerical demonstrations in the present paper are primitive, the capability of the proposed MNMS, as a general and systematic way for developers and users of numerical simulations to verify their codes being used, should not be underestimated.

    The present study describes estimation of charge and electric field based on the precipitation particle distribution measurement in thundercloud. An X band multi parameter (MP-X) radar and a multi LF sensor network (BOLT) as lightning detectors were used. Polarization parameters obtained from MP-X radar were used to perform the precipitation particle distinction. Distinguished particle distribution from the polarization parameters including graupel gives particle size distribution, and electric charge amount in the collision of graupel and ice crystals. By solving the Poisson equation with charge amount obtained, the electric potential and the electric field have been calculated.
     In fact, the present study shows possibility to predict lightning by using MP-X radar through calculating charge and electric field in real time.

    This thesis describes a method to estimate particle size distribution and volume of ice particles in freezing layer using polarimetric radar. The method lead us to predict precipitation earlier than existing weather forecast. The method in this research assumes ice particles in freezing layer as ice crystals having forms of flat spheroid. Through this research, size distribution can be well estimated by using polarimetric parameter of radar. However, radar reflectivity having smaller than 20dBZ gave worse estimation of size distribution. Therefore, necessity to change the formula used in the analysis or the constants such as the dielectric constant under the condition has been proposed. In addition, it was also found that it is necessary to address the uncertainty of the videosonde for verifying the results of the radar.

    An analysis of lightning mechanism by calculating the time variation of the electric field and the neutralization by discharge will be conducted. X-band poralimetric Dopplar radars and the lightning detection devices are used for the present study. An analysis is based on the theory of “Riming Electrification” in which contact between graupels and ice crystals give principal electrical charge in the atmosphere. We calculate the time variation of the electric field from the MP radar. During presentation, we will explain the results estimated by calculating the amount of charge possessed by graupels.

    A large quantity of volcanic ash produced by the volcanic activity leads to the urban functions failure. In the surrounding area of the volcano, it caused the landslide disaster. In order to taking quick recover action from the disaster and to predict the landslide disaster, we need to know the distribution of the real-time volcanic ash volume. Now, meteorological radar is expected.   We therefore studied the volcanic ash particle size distribution in Sakurajima by videosonde which improved for volcanic ash measurement. Then amount of volcanic ash has been estimated from radar reflectivity and volcanic ash particle size distribution. From the results of this study comparing the radar reflectivity factor of X-band MP radar with the observed value on the ground, we tried to define the relationship between them. As a result, only one biggest eruption during observation campaign gave a sample having good correlation between radar and videosonde.

The frequency of the cumulonimbus clouds appeared on Kofu Basin was low. However, the rainfall amount brought by such a cumulonimbus cloud was large. The first appearance of cumulonimbus clouds concentrated from east side to center of Kofu Basin. Before the appearance of a cumulonimbus cloud, south-southwesterly wind with warmish and moist air from the inlet of the valley on southwest side of Kofu Basin and southeasterly wind with warmish and semimoist air crossing the mountains on east side of Kofu Basin co-existed at surface on Kofu Basin with warm and low moist air. The winds formed the convergence and the airs formed the conditional instability on Kofu basin, which formed the environment of the appearance of a cumulonimbus cloud on Kofu Basin.

    An analysis for obtaining mechanism of electrical discharge in the atmosphere has been conducted in order to mitigate the risk of lightning disaster. X-band poralimetric Dopplar radars and the lightning detection devices are used for the present study. High-resolution simultaneous data of lightning tracks and precipitation particle class has been superimposed by using three dimensional visualization software. As a result of the analysis, it is shown that the radar reflectivity factor on the lightning tracks is statistically higher than the other area. Moreover, it also shown that the volume which consists of graupels and ice crystals was dominant at the grid where lightning tracks started. The result supported the theory of “Riming Electrification” by Takahashi (1978) in which contact between graupels and ice crystals give principal electrical charge in the atmosphere.

    This study estimates amount of volcanic ash sediment by X-band radar. The volcanic ash has caused a lot of sediment disasters. The frequency of sediment disaster caused by volcanic ash is assumed to be depended on the relationship between amount of volcanic ash sediment and precipitation so that the sediment disaster may be forecasted by estimation of volcanic ash sediment. However, limited access at the area of active volcano slope prevents us from surveying the amount of sedimentation. Therefore estimation of volcanic ash by remote sensing is one of the tangible solution. However the density, shape and rotation of volcanic ash are less homogeneous than raindrop, thus estimation of volcanic ash amount is more difficult. By using numerical scattering simulation and the observation data analysis, we are developing a method for volcanic ash estimation. In the proceedings, the relationship between radar reflectivity factor and density of the volcanic ash in the air is shown as an example.

     In order to research the hydrological balance at the northern foot region of Mt. Fuji, we investigated the rainfall estimation there in last year. However, it caused impossible observation areas by a single X-MP radar. To reduce impossible observation areas, we investigated the rainfall estimation around Mt. Fuji by composition of 4 X-MP radars.
     In this result, we could estimate rainfall on all over Mt. Fuji for the case of stratiform rain type by composition of 4 X-MP radars. And then we found that the estimated error of X-MP radar was smaller than that by C-band meteorological radar for the cases of stratiform and convective rain.
     Therefore, we could show availability of the rainfall estimation by composition of 4 X-MP radars.

     In recent years, the number of heavy rain has been increasing. Railway companies take measures against rainfall disasters. This research focuses one of the “soft” countermeasure, operation control. The decision for railway operation depends on the rainfall observed by railway rain-gauges. However, railway rain-gauges cannot observe a localized rainfall, because it is placed only every dozen kilometers.
     In this research, Radar/Raingauge-Analyzed Precipitation data (analyzed precipitation) has been applied to decision making. The analyzed precipitation is almost similar to a rain-gauge data, but the analyzed precipitation has uncertainty and an error from rain-gauge data. Verification of the effect of uncertainty on operation control decision has been conducted.
     According to the results, amount of analyzed precipitation can capture a localized rainfall. It was found that probabilistic decision making using the analyzed precipitation gives distinct, safe and efficient operation.
     Although verification using hourly rainfall was described on the proceedings, accumulated rainfall amount will be taken into account at the presentation.

    This study evaluated usefulness of using One-week Ensemble Prediction made by JMA and operation models using Dynamic Programming (DP) and Stochastic Dynamic Programming (SDP) to decide the optimized operation of discharge of the dam. To evaluate usefulness, these models were applied to operation of the Hiyoshi Dam located at the upper reaches of the Katsura River when heavy rain was brought by Typhoon 18 (MAN-YI) in 2013. From the results of the study, if One-week Ensemble Prediction is accurate to some extent, it is useful to decide the optimized operation. Moreover the proposed method which decides the amount of discharge using One-week Ensemble Prediction before it starts to rain demonstrates fully effective flood control.

    In order to improve radar observation of ice particles in terms of accuracy and physical meaning, this study investigates the relationship between actual radar reflectivity factor of ice particles and estimated hypothetical radar reflectivity factor based on diameters of measured by videosonde. Focusing the error generated by using longer axis as a representative diameter is the special characteristics of the study. Campaign observation synchronized with videosonde was conducted in BAIU season around Okinawa islands, Japan. RHI (Range Height Indicator) scan mode synchronized with videosonde that can observe precipitation particles directly. Hypothetical radar reflectivity factor was calculated from ice particles pictures taken by videosonde. The physical meaning of radar observation for ice particles is investigated in this study. Hypothetical radar reflectivity factor calculated based on diameters measured by videosonde is verified through analyzing a difference of observational characteristics between radar and videosonde for utilizing ground-based in-situ observation installing disdrometer also.

    On 18 February 2013, the stratiformed precipitating system associated with an extratropical cyclone hitting the Pacific coast on Japan covered Shizuoka region and Kofu basin, which was observed by X-band multi-parameter radars. From the observation of X-band multi-parameter radars, on Kofu Basin, the brightband appeared near the surface and ascended, so that the condition of precipitation changed snowfall to rainfall. Then, the brightband height decreased gradually from Shizuoka region to Kofu Basin. Above them, it is suggested as follows; the height variation of brightband contributed to the determination of precipitating condition at surface (e.g. rainfall or snowfall), and the brightband observation by X-band multi-parameter radars installed in a low altitude site is important for the simple classification of rainfall and snowfall in the stratiformed precipitating system.

    As part of studies for the maintenance and utilization of water resources on the northern foot region of Mt. Fuji, we investigate the rainfall estimation there. As the preliminary study, we compared rainfall estimated by X-MP radar and C-band meteorological radar with surface rainfall on the northern foot region of Mt. Fuji.  From the analyses, we found that the correlation between rainfall at surface and estimated by X-MP radar was high for the cases of stratiform and convective rain. Then, the accuracy of the rainfall estimation of X-MP radar was better than that by C-band meteorological radar.

    X-band Multi Parameter Radar enables to obtain detailed and various parameters to estimation of rainfall amount. It is expected to contribute to real time observation of localized heavy rainfall and disaster reduction. However, large errors in rainfall estimation have been reported over distant mountainous regions in Yamanashi because the radar beams are blocked by mountains and attenuated by strong rainfall. In this study, estimated rainfall using X-band Multi Parameter radar of University of Yamanashi was compared with rain gauge data provided by Japan Meteorological Agency and Yamanashi prefecture. Comparisons were carried out for stratiform rainfall, convective rainfall and typhoon case. As a result, the estimation accuracy was clearly different by rainfall type. And in the stratiform rainfall case, estimation accuracy was high even over the distant area from the Radar site.

    We investigated the characteristics of distribution of specific differential phase (KDP) in the Heavy Rainfall Area (HRA) 1 observed by X-band Dual-Polarimetric Doppler Radar of University of Yamanashi on September 4, 2009. The core of KDP over 6 deg/km appeared at that of radar reflectivity (ZH) under 4 km ASL. Above 5 km ASL, KDP of 0 - 1 deg/km was distributed without the distribution of ZH. The increasing gradient of KDP from upper to lower layers appeared at 4 - 5 km ASL with the melting level. It is suggested for the distribution of KDP as follows, (1) the structure composed by rain drops (solid precipitating particles) was appeared clearly (unclearly) and (2) the increasing gradient reflected the transition of distributions from solid precipitating particles and rain drops.

    In this present study, rainfall data in Yamanashi was collected using X-band dual-polarimetric radar of University of Yamanshi. And the verification of accuracy concerning the rainfall amount estimation and consideration concerning the estimation difference were done by analyzing these data. As a result, the rainfall estimation by specific diffential phase KDP did not receive the rainfall attenuation easily compared with reflectivity factor ZH. In addition, from the comparison with AMeDAS, the rainfall estimation accuracy on September 4 was acceptable result. However, on October 8 was not acceptable result. For this reason, there are still problems in the rainfall estimation by KDP in Yamanashi. And it has been understood that the estimate accuracy changes by rainfall type or intensity.

    Difficulty on direct observation of precipitation falling processes is one of the factors that insufficient for short-time quantitative precipitation forecasting. This study discussed precipitation falling processes using by the dual polarimetric doppler radar on university of yamanashi. The elevation angle model using each altitude of the terminal fall velocity of raindrops and the doppler velocity was developed as estimating slope of strong echo region. In case of rainfall event at Aug/2/2009, model results were validated by observed echo images. This model could adequately represent time variation of elevation angle. It was indicated that slope of strong echo region was influenced by difference of between migration velocity of rain area and wind velocity on each altitude.

Availability of using satellite observation data was discussed from comparisons of estimated sediment production rate on precipitation by ground rain gauges and observed sediment production rate. In this study, daily precipitation from the GPCP and GSMaP data set inputted to USLE as estimation of annual sediment production rate. As a result, these results were nearly value which inputted ground rain gauge data which complemented by Thiessen method. And sediment production rate by the GPCP and GSMaP were better accuracy than the observed rain gauge data. Satellite observation data is useful on using USLE method was indicated.

    The objective of the study is to develop a GIS-based water infrastructure inventory (WII) for water resources assessment in the upper Srepok basin, Vietnam. The water availability and demand were estimated using common methods. Different water scarcity indicators were estimated to examine the water situation at district level under present and future conditions and future water development needs are assessed. Results reveal that the aggregated information on the basin scale misleads the issue of water situation, especially the scarcity at local level due to high spatio-temporal variations of water resources availability and demands. Most districts in the study basin will experience severe water scarcity in 2010 and 2020 in both physical and economic terms. Generated data from the WII shows very low percentage of water withdrawals in several districts with respect to available resources. Therefore, to meet future demand, significant investment in water infrastructure is needed.

From results of the suspended sediment concentration at Chiang Saen, the value on an A1B scenario was larger than a present climate, and wash-road increase was suggested. The volume of sediment production by USLE on the A1B scenario was approximately 2 times of the present climate. The sediment production rate in upper part (a steep slope area) on the climate change will be large, and it affect to the sediment transportation in the lower part.

    An estimation method to calculate Probable Maximum Precipitation based on satellite based precipitation data is proposed. In the method, the cloud cluster from the global precipitation data from satellite is extracted. The region where the cloud cluster is generated easily is specified. In addition, 11 regions where the cloud cluster is generated easily were selected to compare the cloud cluster and precipitation. Two method of estimating PMP for one month was proposed by using a regression line between the monthly averaged frequency of cloud cluster and monthly averaged rainfall, most effective cloud clusters and the maximum frequency of cloud cluster. The PMP of November in Malay Peninsula was estimated as 531 mm/mon.

    A study having an objective to estimate the maximum snowflake diameter in high altitude of cloud through thickness of bright band observed by radar has been conducted. Data was collected during the hydro-meteorological observation project including video sonde observation. Melting layer thickness which is defined as the height between start and end of melting was estimated by using maximum snowflake diameter observed video sonde. The estimation used the snowflake melting model proposed by Matsuo and Sasyo. It was understood that the melting layer thickness estimated by the model and the observed thickness by radar bright band were relatively similar. According to the result, the maximum snowflake diameter can be estimated by using the bright band and the snowflake melting model.

    Mechanism of rainfall process through collecting and analyzing data from advanced radar namely COBRA is investigated in this study. The effect of COBRA for measuring rainfall process is expected in the following field; i) detailed bistatic characteristics from each type of raindrop, ii) classification of type of raindrops, iii) correction of attenuation during the severe rainfall, iv) removal of ground clatter, v) estimation of rain drop size distribution. However, classification of type of raindrops has not been done yet. Therefore, with using the Micro Rain Radar, rainfall process is investigated through estimating the rain drop size distribution.

    X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) is widely used for geological analysis of sediment samples. In this study a method for detecting sources of sedimentation using mineral composition obtained by the qualitative phase of XRD is proposed. Possible minerals matching resulted from the Hanawalt's searchmatch method were arranged into binary matrix of mineral composition of each sampling site. Hierarchical cluster analysis was grouped samples into clusters based on mineral similarity and yielded a dendrogram. Using information of sample's environment, the meaning of dendrogram was derived for sediment fingerprinting.
    The result showed that sedimentation sources in the Sengguruh reservoir mainly come from 10-30° slope of the Lesti basin and cultivated area downstream of the Brantas origin. Comparing with the field observation and satellite data, a good correlation was obtained.

    It is very important for appropriate dam operation and disaster prevention to predict severe rainfall in mountainous region. For last several years, we have developed rainfall prediction system for the Kurobe-Valley, which is consist of steep mountains and valleys. The system has been already installed and used at the dam administration offices. The system had a weak point in terms of the rainfall prediction especially at the beginning of rainfall event. In this paper, we reveal that precipitable water vapor is related with rainfall event, and propose a new index which is applicable for the signal of the beginning of rainfall event for real-time estimation.

    Based on hydrological and meteorological data analysis, landcover type and green-up onset and offset are estimated using time-series analysis of PAL (Pathfinder AVHRR Land) data from January 1982 to Decenber1 1998. Our results show that air temperature determines green-up time and soil moisture (which is related to precipitation, temperature, snow melting and discharge) determines the vegetation type and its response in this area. Some of detected landcover changing places during analysis period are caused by air temperature warming because it brings promoting of evapotranspiration and dry soil condition. However, most of changing places are caused by not only natural condition but human activity directly or indirectly. Water usage system in this area affects large scale hydrological cycle and vegetation types so much.

    In order to build a connection between former study of fine sediment yield and former study of rainfall system, the observation of raindrop size distribution and sediment yield has been made in the Lesti river basin that is a tributary of the Brantas river in Indonesia.
    The following results were obtained. Rainfall energy work which are calculated by size distribution obtained by MRR has good relationship with rainfall amount obtained by a raingage. The energy which is used for calculating sediment yield is proven to be treated as linear to rainfall amount. On the other hand, the spatially non-uniform rainfall is shown in the Lesti river basin. The methods for treating the limited rainfall data is proposed in this study. Finally, the accumulation and erosion of sediment is observed in three points in the Lesti river basin. Moreover, main items which are important to estimate the sediment yield is picked up by the observation.

    The lifetime of Sengguruh and Sutami reservoirs have been evaluated based on erosion and sedimentation rate calculated using combination USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) method with distributed model in GIS. The sedimentation calculated by distributed model shows a good approximation comparing with the echo-sounding data. Results show that annual sedimentation in the Sengguruh reservoir is predicted around 2, 148, 000 ton, while Sutami reservoir is around 1, 707, 600 ton. Comparing with the echo-sounding data from those reservoirs, the error percentages in volume of sedimentation are 9.5% and 13.6% respectively. Their effective storages are predicted full of sediment in 2.78 years and 147.6 years. Finally, the verification indicated that the proposed method is well applicable to predict the erosion-sedimentation and to evaluate the reservoir lifetime in this basin.

    The study uses a simple ecosystem model to grasp the relationship between the change in inundated areas (water level and flood extends) and the level of fish production in the TSB. The model produces the fish production trends in the TSB that can be refined to reflect the changes in key parameters such as flood extends and relative area density. It shows the continued dominance of the opportunist species in the TSB fish composition in the years to come. It reconfirms the importance of the hydrological and biological linkages between the TSB and the Mekong River Basin, since over 60% of the fish catch in the TSB is contributed by the white fish that mitigates to and from other parts of the Mekong River. It is an issue requiring a cross-sectroral and cross-bundary integrated planning and development.

    The paper analyses the possible cumulative impacts of the hydropower and irrigation development, and climate change (as conceptual issue) in the Mekong River Basin, and the scope for balancing water availability and demand especially in the drier years, and to assess the flood conditions. The cumulative impacts from the key development svenarios are assessed by using a simple "spreadsheet" and simulated results of the selected development scinario. The assessment of flow changes is expexted by comparing pre-difined river flow -'baseline' flow series at the selected assessment points (APs) along the Lower Mekong River starting from Chiang Saen to Kratie with the assumed changes in flow. The study results show remarkable change in flow regime of the Mekong Basin. These changes are expexted to have different implication for diffrent stretches of the river and to diffrent water use sectors and ecology. It serves as a good indicative for the furture development of the sustainable waterpolicy for the Mekong Basin.

    The authors conducted a set of survey on suspended sediment transportation in the Kataniwa River, during the flood on September 22nd '96, and June 19th '97, and found out that the peak of wash load concentration appeared earlier than the peak of discharge, and fluctuation of wash load concentration followed the fluctuation of the rainfall intensity. To investigate these phenomena, a numerical simulation model, which describes the run-off of water and sediment transportation on the Kataniwa river basin, was developed. The model was given two processes of sediment transportation; wash load yields by the impact of raindrops and surface flow on the surface of basin, and suspended load yields in the channel. The result of simulation showed fairly good agreement with the observed data.

    The authors conducted a set of survey on wash load transportation at the two sites in the Hinuma River, during a fl ood on June 19th, 1997, and found out a decrease in wash load concentration between the upper site (46.0km) and the lower site (28.1km). A numerical simulation was carried out to investigate causes of the decrease. CIP scheme was introduced to solve the unsteady advection-diffusion equation in the model of wash load transportation model. Results of the simulation show that the advection dominated and the diffusion did not in the process of the wash load transportation, and lateral outflow of wash load, which was caused by the trapping of vegetation, was one of the causes of the decrease in wash load concentration.

    In this study, we investigate the effect of size distribution of rain drop on the wet deposition of nitrate. The numerical acid rain model which uses the bin method for calculating the cloud microphysical processes is used for the investigation. The results are as follows, i) rain which mainly consists of large size droplets makes much amount of wet deposition of nitrate, ii) accumulated rainfall amount is important to estimate the amount of wet deposition of nitrate, iii) spatial variation of wet deposition of nitrate is large, and iv) wet deposition of nitrate can be estimated by space borne radar with considering the graupel fall.

    In flood control, the decision support information made by short-term severe rainfall prediction methods and flood control support systems are indispensable for quick and appropriate operation. On the other hand, it is difficult to forecast the weather of meso-β to γ scales numerically because of limited computational resources, stability of calculation, time and cost for computer and exactness of calculation. In this paper, based on these background, we develop the qualitative short-term severe rainfall prediction method using artificial intelligence for practical use in order to apply to river site by forecasting the time series variation of distribution of severe rainfall having a lead time of six hours, automatically.

  • Analysis of Temporal and Spatial Change of a Convective Thunder Storm in Tokyo Metropolitan using GPS Precipitable Water : Case Study on 23rd August in 1997.
    OISHI SATORU
    The temporal and spatial relationships between GPS precipitable water vapor (GPS-PWV) and rainfall intensity (RI) on an event of strong convective thunder storm in the Tokyo metropolitan area were investigated. RINEX, one of the standard format of GPS raw data and supplied from Geographical Survey Institute of Japan, were converted to GPS-PWV by GAMIT software on 30 min basis. The following results were obtained ; (1) A rapid increase of GPS-PWV can be observed 1 to 2 hours before a beginning of sever rainfall, (2) The hourly increment of GPS-PWV has a strong correlation with the possibility and amount of increasing of one hour later RI, and (3) GPS-PWV begins to decrease at the peak of RI. These results suggest the promising availability of GPS-PWV as one of the prior-signals of strong convective thunder storms.

    Recently, disaster due to localized heavy rainfall is noticeable under climate change and urbanization. Although prediction accuracy of heavy rainfall in large spatial scale is getting higher and higher, it is still difficult for localized heavy rainfall in smaller spatial scale to be even reproduced. Moreover, earlier detection and prediction of localized and suddenly generated heavy rainfall (so called guerrilla heavy rainfall) are very important, even if the time lag is five to ten minutes. Also, prediction and early warning of flash flood are expected. Under these circumstances, this scientific integrated research aims to execute in-situ campaign observations of precipitation using a video-sonde synchronized with the latest polarimetric Doppler radar which is expected to be effective in the rainfall estimation and prediction. Also, this research aims to develop methodologies for reducing water related disaster.

    This study aims to obtain psychological aspect of children for understanding memories of disaster prevention education materials. For this purpose attitude surveys were conducted. First, a video-story was created from past landslide disaster at Mukawa of Yamanashi Prefecture in 1959. The story contains a lesson about the disaster. From the video-story, the memories of children were analyzed by dividing the video-story into illustrations and narrations. The main finding of analysis shows that a possibility that the illustrations and the narrations of the scenes chosen by children had emotional stimuli (emotional arousal) which made the children's preserve their memories.

  • Study on identification of rainfall particle by using MRR based on cloud microphysical process
    OISHI Satoru, OKUDA Takayoshi
    One of the most important problems to improve the accuracy of rainfall intensity estimation by radar is identification of type of precipitation droplets. The type of precipitation droplets are basically classified into two, ice and liquid. And then, difference of the characteristics of scattering of microwaves among the types of precipitation droplet takes effect to accuracy of rainfall intensity estimation. This study proposes a method to identify the phase of precipitation droplets by using MRR and cloud microphysical processes.

    A powerful typhoon Faxai, the 15th typhoon in 2019, made landfall in Tokyo’s neighboring Chiba Prefecture around 5:00 a.m. on September 9. It caused severe structural damage especially in the southwestern part of Chiba Prefecture. It also triggered extensive and continued power outage in Chiba Prefecture. Power supply was disrupted at approximately 640 thousand houses in Chiba Prefecture as of 10:30 am on September 9. The power failure continued for about two weeks mainly in the southern part of Chiba Prefecture. In this study, various functional and structural damage caused by this typhoon was investigated. In Japan, it is anticipated that extensive power outages may occur after the Tokyo Inland and the Nankai Trough earthquakes in the near future. This study will be helpful to establish a resilient water supply system against future earthquakes.

    Knowledge of the electric charge of precipitation particles in thunderclouds is essential for understanding the mechanism of lightning generation. However, there has been no low-cost, easy-to-use meteorological observation device to measure it. Therefore, in this study, we developed a new, compact, lightweight, low-cost, and user-friendly sensor (EC sensor) equipped on the 400 MHz radiosonde. This new EC sensor can be attached to a balloon and released into a thunderstorm cloud, and the amount of positive and negative charge and the number of particles detected by the sensor every second can be monitored on the ground in real time. Although the COVID-19 epidemic prevented sufficient test flights, the new charge sonde was completed through prototype design, ground testing, and the development of data recording software.

    An integrated research has been conducted to mitigate water related disasters caused by localized heavy rainfall and “guerrilla-heavy rainfall”. Multi-sensors observation toward the understanding of storm-genesis and its development was carried out at Keihanshin region and Okinawa. We have identified the structure of pairs of positive/negative vertical vortex tubes at the storm-genesis, and discovered a developing storm possesses a hierarchical structure of the vertical vortex tubes in a sense of spatial scale. Our new findings have activated a new way for the earlier risk prediction system by enhancing its practical utilization, which is one of our great contributions to the society as well as the related research area.

    We obtained the seismic and acoustic energies and durations of 2014 and 2015 eruptions of Kuchinoerabujima. We estimated the altitude of the eruption plume by a force at the seismic source and compare with the plume altitude by visual observation for the 2015 eruption. We compared seismic waveforms and tilt changes of eruptions in Japan and clarified common features of the eruptions of Kusatsushiranesan, Ontakesan and Kuchinoerabujima. We detected the radar reflection intensity corresponding to eruption plumes of Sakurajima and Shinmoedake. We estimated the plume height of the Sakurajima eruption on November 13, 2017 as 4 km by using the radar reflection intensity, although the visual plume height was unknown due to bad weather. By comparing the radar reflection intensities of the 2017 and 2018 eruptions of Shinmoedake with the plume altitudes by visual observation, we accumulated the basic data for establishing a method for estimating altitudes of eruption plumes using weather radars.

    An integrated research has been conducted to reduce water related disasters caused by localized heavy rainfall and “guerrilla-heavy rainfall”. During the in-situ observations, newly developed videosonde system was utilized to understand the life stages of convective clouds by synchronizing it with the polarimetric radar. And, another fundamental observations toward understanding storm-genesis was started over heat-island urban, by utilizing multi-sensors observations. Valuable data collected during the in-situ observations provide important information to the consequent researches, such as numerical modeling of cumulonimbus cloud, developing a method of rainfall prediction, and establishing an earlier-alert system. The earlier detection and risk prediction system for guerrilla-heavy rainfall is under test operation by the River Bureau of Japan, for its practical utilization, which is one of our great contributions to the society and the related research area as well.

    In the present study, we developed methods, algorithms and computer systems which reduce floods in urban area by optimizing the releasing discharge from smaller reservoir. Specifically, we developed hydrological simulators based on distributed hydrological model in which rainfall information from radar with some extent of error which was quantitatively utilized for giving probabilistic flood forecasting. Then, an optimized method was applied for flood control using reservoir with stochastic flood forecast. First, a probabilistic method for short term rainfall forecast was achieved by using radar echo extrapolation method with singular vector for making probabilistic ensembles. Then, a hydrological model which also deals with probabilistic spread based on generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation (GLUE). Second, an optimized control algorithm using Dynamic Programming has been applied for flood control by using reservoir. In the present study, we use Stochastic Dynamic Programming (SDP) for dealing with weekly ensemble weather forecasting issued from Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). In the SDP, objective function was minimizing the water level at a point in lower river basin. The result of the SDP with weekly ensemble weather forecasting made water level reduced and the objectives of the present study has been achieved.

    本研究では数10分から数時間程度の可能最大降水量の算出を試み,それが気候変動や都市化に与えている影響について考察した.本研究で得られた最大の成果は,実測の雨滴粒径分布の鉛直プロファイルデータを解析することによって,降雨の時間スケール特性を規定している特徴を捉えることに成功したことである.すなわち,1時間を超える時間スケールの降雨を対象にした場合には,降雨量は上空雨水量の総量と正のよい線形相関関係を持つこと,および1時間未満の時間スケールの降雨を対象にした場合には,降雨量は落下速度の鉛直プロファイルによって規定されていることを見いだした.特に,1時間未満の時間スケールの降雨は上空1000mから400mにおける雨滴の落下速度の変化が多きときに降雨量が大きくなる関係を用いて,可能最大降水量を定量化した.一方,1時間を超える時間スケールでは上空雨水量の総量はTRMM-TMIによって算出可能であることを示して,その定量化手法を特定するところまでを検討した. 温暖化ガスの排出に伴う気候変動では,気温上昇によって空気中の水蒸気許容量を増加させたところに上空冷気塊による冷却で水滴化するために上空雨水量が増加し,1時間を超える時間スケールの可能最大降水量は増加するというシナリオが考えられるが,それはTRMM-TMIを使った検討を待たなくてはならない.また,都市化によって高層ビルが増加すると局地風系が形成されることによって,上空1000mから400mでの雨滴の落下速度の変化は大きくなることが予想されるので,1時間以内の時間スケールの可能最大降水量が増大することが考えられるが,それも詳細な数値計算の解析を待つ必要がある.

    Many kinds of precipitation processes including convective rain and stratiform rain was observed by COBRA, 400MHz WPR and ground based rainfall observation devices in 2004 (baiu season, typhoon season) and in 2006 (baiu season, typhoon season, fall and winter season). The collected data have been used for investigation and development of cloud microphysical processes including analysis of rain drops size distribution (DSD), vertical profile of DSD, evaluation of polarimetric parameter of COBRA, and development of algorithms for DSD above melting layer by 400MHz WPR. Effectiveness of polarimetric parameters of multi parameter Doppler radar “COBRA" including horizontal radar echo (ZH), vertical radar echo (ZV), differential reflectivity (ZDR) and specific differential phase shift (KDP) has been investigated. Then effectiveness of linear depolarisation ratio (LDR) was shown by comparison of observed parameters and parameters estimated parametrically non-from DSD that was obtained by disdrometer observation. Moreover, a rainfall rate estimation method has been built and evaluated by considering the polarimetric parameters. Extended Karman filter, ensemble Karman filter and four dimensional variation method have been applied to original hydrostatic numerical simulation model in order to develop assimilation methods for polarimetric parameters to cloud resolving numerical simulation. Then, it is found that ensemble Karman filter was the best way to assimilation. Meso scale processes inside typhoons were new point of view to investigate the growth and movement of typhoon. Therefore, analysis of COBRA data and numerical simulation were conducted. Then, eye wall corruption by impact of convective cell to eye wall organization was found by the analysis of COBRA data. Wind field simulated by CReSS was also analyzed for corruption of eye wall organization. Especially vorticity and divergence of horizontal wind was focused. These results were reported and will be used in the second stage that is grant-in-aid for scientific research (A) from 2007 to 2009.

    The intensive field campaign of the areal distribution of turbulent fluxes (CAPS2003) was implemented on the harvested paddy field by the members of the Lake Biwa Project and other young scientists from the flux research group. The 30 participants came from 11 universities and institute. The observation was organized by permanent energy balance measurement station, one Doppler lidar (3-dimensional distribution of wind and aerozol), two Doppler sodars (vertical profile of wind), one scintillation meter (path average sensible heat flux), GPS sonde (vertical profile of temperature, humidity, and wind), 4 super flux sites (sensible and latent heat fluxes, radiation budget), 4 sat sites (sensible heat flux), 3 flux profile sites (vertical profile of sensible heat flux), 24 thermocouples (fluctuation of air temperature). Furthermore, to estimate the distribution of energy balance components, radiometer and thermometers were installed at the same place for calibration. The main characteristics of this CAPS2003 is that the target area (200m x 100m) is much smaller than that of CAPS2002 (1200m x 500m). The arrangement of the sensors was "cross-shape", and all data from sensors in the central zone were recorded by one 64ch logger. This perfect synchronizing aims to the tracking of the detailed structure of the turbulent flow. All the processed (quality checked) data from CAPS2002 and CAPS2003 were included in the database and opened on the Web site. As for the numerical modeling, the non-hydrostatic meteorological model ARPS and the advanced land surface scheme SiBUC were coupled. By the grid-nesting system from the synoptic scale to the local scale, the detailed local wind field was simulated and the effects of the land surface processes on the local circulation were analyzed in detail. Also, the dataset of the distribution of the energy and water budget components in the Lake Biwa Basin was re-constructed by the off-line simulation of the improved land surface model SiBUC.

    1) Field survey on hydraulic and water quality environments in Manila Bay-Laguna Lake coupling system and development of numerical simulation models Intensive field surveys were performed at Manila Bay, Laguna Lake and Pasig River in 2001 October (wet season), at Laguna Lake in 2002 February (dry season) and at Manila Bay 2003 February (dry season). With these surveys, the characteristic features of the hydraulic and water quality environments in these periods were clarified. Especially, the importance has been revealed for the effects of the spatial non-uniformity of the wind field on Laguna Lake, the environmental loads from the tributaries of the Pasig River through the Metro Manila area, the 3-D structure of the currents in Manila Bay and others. Further, by conducting a long-term continuous field measurement at Laguna Lake and Pasig River for the period from March to June, 2002, it was succeeded in observing the phenomenon that the brackish water from Manila Bay intrudes into the Laguna Lake in the end of the dry season. In addition to these field surveys, it was also attempted to develop numerical simulation models for currents in Manila Bay and Laguna Lake, respectively. For the former, with the basis of dual-sigma POM, a 3-D current model by Nadaoka & Nihei, nesting techniques and the effect of non-hydrostatic pressure distribution were examined. For the latter, on the other hand, a field survey to examine the hydrodynamic effects of the fishpen was conducted in Laguna Lake in 2003 March. 2) Field survey on distributions and sources of heavy metals in relation to surrounding watersheds Analyses have been made for the existing samples of bottom mud taken in Manila Bay and newly obtained bottom mud samples taken in Pasig River and Laguna Lake, revealing the characteristic distributions of various heavy metal components and their possible source areas. Special attention has been paid on the lead, as its distribution may show appreciable human effects. As one of the possible sources of the lead, roadside dust was sampled and analyzed. 3) Numerical simulation of mudflow in Mt. Pinatubo watershed area A two-dimensional numerical model of mudflow was developed and applied to the watershed area of Mt. Pinatubo, giving reasonable results.

    The purpose of this research is in making the flood control support system, and the application of this to an actual flood. The accuracy improvement of Severe Rainfall prediction system using Artificial Intellige nee (SRAI) which is the kernel of the system was done became indispensable for that. SRAI is the method to qual itatively forecast the breaking out and development of the rainy cloud of small area and short term, by using the radar, the GMS image, and the numerical prediction data as an initial value. It was difficult for GPV to achieve the forecast accuracy improvement time because it used the data from RSM (Regional Spectral Model) as an initial value. Then, the forecast value of the NHM (Meteorological Research Institute/ Numerical Prediction Division Non Hydrostatic Model), which was the next generation numeric meteorological model (5km space resolution every hour) was introduced, and the improvement of the forecast accuracy was aimed at. The accuracy of rainfall forecast of two-three hours has been improved. In addition, because the improvement of the rainfall forecast accuracy was able to be expected, the mixing ratio of "cloud water" and "rain water" which NHM forecast was made to be used as an initial value of SRAI in the process of the research on the accuracy improvement, has been used. Therefore, SRAI in the present stage is a system which can forecast the rainfall for a short time by taking, and processing all information on NHM. However, because a lot of time had been spared to development, the application case was not able to be increased. It will be assumed to be a problem to improve reliability to the user by increasing the application case in the future. It has pride that making an application for the forecast by a numeric meteorological model to the management site in the river and the reservoir by overcoming the problem of NHM (The rainfall of 100 % cannot be forecasted, necessary of highly meteorological knowledge is necessary for the interpretation, and a large amount of data) by using NHM at the end is a big result in this research.

    1) According to the knowledge level for reservoir operation, we proposed the knowledge acquisition process to find abnormality of weather situation and acquire the new information or countermeasure. The data of typhoon path, rainfall, and runoff characteristics are classified and added into knowledge base after integration with fuzzy set concept. 2) Hyetograph and hydrograph are predicted through fuzzy-neuro prediction combined with fuzzy inference theory and neural network. Hydrograph was predicted with two approaches ; one was application of predicted hyetograph and the other was direct application of only observed inflow. Moreover, the acquired knowledge level was represented through the information theory. 3) The virtual reality concept was introduced into the operation instructions where the panel operation, gate control and controlled results at upper or downstream points were reproduced with three-dimensional graphical system. The trainee can understand the real operation results of storage reservoir in control office. 4) All of programming was applied to be structured with Visual C++ on personal computer. This software will support to make the proposed program compact and effective. As we obtained the monitored data different from the real-time data, the real application was not taken in this research.

    In the project, study on the acid snow in the northern part of the Lake BIWA has been done. In the study, transportation, reaction and deposition processes are modeled both physically and chemically. Then the cloud microphysics model that considers the chemical processes of acid snow has been developed. We verify the models by comparison with water quality observation. We also developed the model of runoff process which consists of snow fall, snow storage, snow melt, penetration processes. Finally we also verify the model by comparison with observed data. Development of the numerical model of acid snow : Cloud numerical model that includes the explicit type cloud microphysical processes has been developed based on cloud model made by Oishi. Then we consider the generation and deposition processes of SOx and NOx diagnostically. We obtained the result that the mixing ratio of SOx and NOx is quite bigger than observed data. Therefore, we are now in process of development of the model which prognosticate the chemical transportation processes. This model is one of the best models in the world since it can calculate the distribution of cloud droplet diameter that is very important factor for chemical processes. Modeling of Acid snow runoff process and its application to basin scale : We had the important observation period and routine measuring system in very small basin (5.4 Km^2) for making the model of acid snow runoff process. Then we made the application of the models for considering a basin scale by using a water quantity model, a water quality model, a hybrid model and a multi layer model. We obtained the result that the daily variation of snow melting, decreasing of pH by acid shock, daily variation of pH in the river is well explained.

    In this project, investigators have proposed the severe rainfall prediction system as well as they have analyzed the local heavy rainfall. The analysis of local heavy rainfall has been done by twoapproaches. First, investigators observed several severe reinfall events mainly with radio sonde and rain gage under condition of severe rainfall in Baiu. Second, investigators developed a cumulus cloud model which has terrain following coordinate and detailed microphysics model. Using the model, investigators simulate severe rainfall events. The processes and result of the analysis is as follows ; 1) Hydrological and meteorological observations have been done under condition of severe rainfall which came mainly from Baiu fronts at the Kuzuryu river basin in Fukui Prefecture. Observation period is June 20-30,1996 and July 2-10,1997. Observations have been done with radio sonds (two to three hourly), optical and normal rain gage (once par one to ten minutes), car bone X band radar (continuous). 2) Numerical cumulus model which has detailed cloud microphysics have been computed with observation data as initial and verification data. Investigators analyze the effect of topography, wind field, atmospheric and thermodynamic stability and water vapor on cloud microphysical processes which control the cumulus generation and dissipation. As results of the analysis, investigators obtained results that the amount of hail generation is important factor for rainfall amount from cumulus. Moreover, they found that water vapor and vertical wind are important factor for hail generation. 3) Investigators proposed that GPS is suitable observation system for water vapor observation. Moreover, they developed a new equation system in order to obtain the water vapor disturbance of cumulus scale using GPS.Investigators found that the equation system made good results using numerical simulation data. They also investigated efficiency of the equation system using observed GPS data. Investigation found that the equation system is effective under good observation condition. They also found that the observation data are affected by many kind of error sources. Finally, the vertical wind field observation by Doppler radar and water vapor observation by GPS are proposed as a effective observation system for severe rainfall prediction.

    レーダー雨量計の有効性については様々なところで議論されている.しかし,レーダー雨量計を用いて地上における降雨強度や総降雨量の推定を行う際の様々な問題があり,十分な精度が得られていないのが現状である.その原因の一つとして,雨滴粒径分布が降雨の種類によって変化し,その鉛直分布も変化することがあげられる.落下する雨滴粒径分布の変化を雨滴の分裂・併合・蒸発などの微物理過程を考慮したモデルで表現したり,指数分布で雨滴粒径分布を表現し,その分布の傾きを降雨強度によって分類するなどの試みは行われている.しかし,それらの結果とレーダー雨量推定精度向上とは必ずしも結びついていない.申請者らはこれらの問題を根本的に解決するために降雨タイプに依存した形で雨滴粒径分布の鉛直構造を考慮したレーダー雨量推定手法の構築を目指し,実際に地上と鉛直方向の雨滴粒径分布を観測・解析することにより降雨タイプに依存した雨滴粒径分布パラメータとその鉛直分布を明らかにすることを試みた.鉛直方向の雨滴粒径分布の観測は,雨滴の落下速度のドップラースペクトルから雨滴粒径分布を推定することが可能な京都大学超高層電波研究センターのMUレーダー(Middle and Upper Radar)を用いて行った. 地上における雨滴粒径分布については,降雨タイプ別の定式化を行った.降雨期間中に降雨タイプがあまり変化しない梅雨前線に伴う降雨に関しては定式化を行うことができたが,台風性,秋雨前線などの降雨タイプでは降雨期間中に,より小さい時・空間スケールの降雨タイプが変化するために今回用いた降雨タイプによる定式化では十分に雨滴粒径分布を表現することができないことが明らかになった.対流性,層状性などのより小さな時・空間スケールでの降雨タイプによる定式化を行う必要である. 鉛直方向の雨滴粒径分布については,指数分布で推定されるパラメータの鉛直分布を時系列で追跡することによって,時々刻々変化する降雨タイプの雨滴粒径分布の鉛直分布をとらえることができ,その降雨タイプは10分程度で変化しており,定式化には10分間の平均値で行うことができることを示した.

    l)Using simulation images degraded from remote sensing images acquired in the Shonai River basin, Takara and Oka have quantitatively investigated the effects of spatial resolution on land cover classification accuracy, a vegetation index NDVI and evapotranspiration estimates based on NDVI.Takara also has constructed a distributed flood runoff model for the Yada River basin and investigated the performance of the model with regard to spatial resolutions of 50m and 250m based on a 50-m digital elevation model as well as parameter values, which were obtained on the basis of a l0-m land use map and remote sensing images. 2)Oka, Takara and Chikamori have made datasets of river stage and precipitation in the Ogura experimental basin. Conducting detailed surveying through topographical maps, aerial photographs and site visiting, they also have made datasets for geographic information such as rivers, artificial drainage channels, pipe lines for water supply and sewage, roads, delineation of land use and contour lines, with GIS. 3)Nakakita has made datasets for precipitations in Kinki and Kyushu acquired radar raingage systems. Investigating a one-year sequence of spatial rainfall distribution acquired at five-minute intervals by the Kunimisan Radar Raingage System in Kyushu, he has found out a strong linear relationship between rainfall and topography (elevation) and proposed a stochastic model of rainfall distribution. 4)Hori has integrated a GIS with a computer model, which can simulate the changing process of inhabitants' attitude on flood disaster due to their experience and time passage. The model is applied to a historical flood event in Nagasaki. 5)For urban storm drainage, Chikamori has proposed a method of optimal operation of pumping systems based on the predicted water stage at pumping stations. 6)Introducing the GPV (Grid Point Value), which is numerically forecasted by the Japanese Meteorological Agency, and the AMeDAS information into GIS,Oishi has developed the qualitative cumulus model using a qualitative reasoning technique to simulate or forecast severe rainfall at local scale.

    気象情報から気象現況を定性的に推論するアルゴリズムとルールを作成し、それを計算機中で表現し,実際の豪雨現象に適用してケーススタディを行うことでアルゴリズムの検証を行うことを目標に以下の研究を行った. 1.気象庁・数値予報出力値であるGPV(Grid Point Value)を用いて前線の位置を判断するアルゴリズムを開発した.このアルゴリズムは気象現象に詳しい人間が前線の位置を判断する手法を模して,事例毎に変化するGPVの値を相対的に判断して事例毎に適当なしきい値を判断して2値化を行うことにより前線を抽出する機能を備えている.さらに,アルゴリズムの検証段階において人間が空間的に分布している数値を判断する際には全領域の値の分布具合を判断して空間をいくつかに分解し,その中で前線を抽出して最後にそれぞれで求められた前線を結合していることが判明した. 2.偏微分方程式により表現されている大気の連続式を通して,GPVで得られるメソαスケールの風の情報から地形の影響を受けて生起するメソγスケールの鉛直風分布を求める定性モデルを開発し,その実現を行った.ここで得られた鉛直風分布と大気の安定度,および水蒸気の供給状況が局地豪雨をもたらすような積雲の生起を予測する推論材料である.また,この定性モデルの開発は,診断的解法ではあるが,今まで常微分方程式系だけが定性推論モデルとなることが可能であったという壁を乗り越えて偏微分方程式系も定性モデル化する手法を提案するものである. 3.積雲の数値シミュレーションを通して局地豪雨をもたらすような積雲の生起・発達に影響を与える種々の定量・定性的要因を獲得し,それらを実際の局地豪雨予測に活用するために1次元定性積雲モデル,それを2次元に拡張した2次元定性積雲モデルの基礎的フレームを考案した. これらの研究を行う上で,特に大量のデータを必要とするGPVの解析に際して,計算機の主記憶装置,外部記憶装置を拡張したことが研究の進捗に非常に効果的に機能した.

    水文循環のスケールアップおよびスケールダウンを考えるに当たって鍵となるのは,地形,蒸発散量および降水量分布のそれである。一方ではstbchasticな議論も非常に重要である。すなわち,平均的な物理量が互いにどういう関係にあるかを様々なスケール毎に個別に議論するだけでは現象を理解したことにはならず,スケール間の関連および相違が説明づけられなければならない。さらには,洪水防御計画や水質源計画に対する降水量分布や水位,流量のstochasticな構造の情報は,今や実用上欠くことのできないものとなっている。以上が,大気との相互作用という視点以外に,水文プロパ-の水循環のモデル化において考慮されなければならない点である。 本研究は以上の視点をベースに,水文循環モデルのスケールアップ・ダウンと水資源システムへの応用を一貫した課題として取り組むための突破口となるべく,イ)流域特性のメッシュ集中化によるマクロ水文モデルの開発,2)降雨分布の時空間分布特性の物理-確率過程モデルの開発,3)大気-降水-土壌・湖面-地表・地中・地下水流出-蒸発散の相互作用の観測,モデリグ,4)雲の存在を重視した降水過程のモデル化と観測,5)地形情報のスケールアップ・ダウンと流出モデルのそれに蒸発散および降水分布特性が及ぼす影響の明確化,6)種々の時間,空間スケールで得られる水文情報の洪水防御計画,水資源計画への活用手法の開発,7)地上および衛星リモートセンシング情報の有効利用手法の開発,を各研究者が連携しながら進めたものである。本研究は,「水文循環モデルのスケールアップ・ダウンと水資源システムへの応用」を完全に確立する事を目指したのではなく,その展望や突破口を具体的に形で示すことにあった。各課題一貫してこれから進むべき方向を研究成果として具体的に示せたことにより,突破口としての役割を果せたと言える。
