| Research Abstract |
The sea surface drag coefficient is an important parameter controlling the momentum transfer between the ocean and atmosphere. However, its characteristics under stormy winds are unknown due to difficulty of its observation. In this research, in order to deduce the quantitative characteristics of the sea surface drag coefficient under stormy winds, a new analysis method using a data assimilation method, i.e. 4th dimension variational method, was developed from the viewpoint where an internal structure of a complex natural system can be deduced through a numerical model and observation data. Accuracy and applicability of the method were examined for various conditions. As a result, the inverse estimation of the sea surface drag coefficient under stormy winds, where its observation is extremely difficult, was shown to be possible with the method applying to the wave data observed outside the storm.
