| Research Abstract |
This research was conducted in the aim of 1) understanding of offshore wind characteristics peculiar to Japanese coastal waters, 2) evaluating the accuracy of the winds simulated with a mesoscale model, 3) evaluating the accuracy of the winds estimated from satellite-borne synthetic aperture radar, and 4) developing an offshore wind forecasting system, all of which are necessary for promoting offshore wind power generation in Japan, by utilizing the offshore platform of the Shirahama Oceanographic Observatory, Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University as an offshore wind monitoring station. Many significant results regarding offshore wind characteristics in Japanese coastal waters and the accuracy of the wind speed estimations were obtained through this research.
