| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The maximum intensity of typhoon is largely controlled by temperature of the sea and that of the upper troposphere. The latter is determined by the heating rate in the upper troposphere, which is strongly dependent on the characteristics of cloud ice in the outflow layer extending from the typhoon center. The purpose of the present study is to clarify the characteristics of the cloud ice in the typhoon outflow layer. Shape, size and number density of cloud ice are directly observed by a balloon-borne microscope. The observation was performed in the Okinawa main island in 2013 and 2014. Two cases of typhoon were observed and characteristics of cloud ice were revealed. This result contributed to the improvement of cloud ice process of the cloud-resolving model.
