Typhoon-induced Wind and Wave Simulation in Suo-nada Bay

摘要

This study examined the method to input typhoon bogus in meteorological objective analysis dataset provided from JMA or NCEP, simulate the meteorological field by using the Mesoscale Model MM5 with the data assimilation of the typhoon intensity and track, and simulate waves by using the third generation wave prediction model WAM. The simulation introduced much more precise sea surface wind and wave prediction in Suo-nada Bay, Japan surrounded with high mountains for several typhoons than the previous simulation with conventional simulation with an empirical two-dimensional typhoon model and the MASCON model.
