Research Abstract

In this project, various aspects of atmosphere-land interaction have been investigated. As the one-dimensional study, observed fluxes are compared with fluxes given by several models. As there exists biases in the observation, definite conclusion cannot be obtained. It may be difficult that this kind of comparison gives us a definite conclusion to the GCM.
As the meso-scale model study, diurnal variation of precipitation over the Bankok has been investigated by using the 2-dimensional non-hydrostatic model. It is concluded that the midnight maximum of precipitation over the Bankok. is due to the eastward propagation of a squal line excited over the mountain slope westward to the Bankok. This study shows it is important to consider a detailed orography in the Monsoon Asia.
For 3 dimensional GCM, 1998 Asian Monsoon was simulated and flux differences due to model horizontal resolutions were examined. With respect to monthly mean fluxes over the large domain (500km x 500km), these differences are small except for the southern part of the Himalaya mountain. It is concluded that only large-scale mountain can exert an influence to fluxes in the range of T42 and T106.
