| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Radiosonde observation in Cambodia was conducted in this project, since there is currently no operational one. The sondes were released simultaneously from two stations in Cambodia, from paddy and from the Tonle Sap Lake. The observed data were used for the data assimilation for the regional climate model simulations with WRF, in order to clarify the mechanism of the locally-induced nocturnal precipitation over the rain-fed agricultural area at western country.
Through the comparison with the observed precipitation both from satellite and ground, it was shown that the simulated precipitation by WRF with data assimilation has been improved even only with day-time observation data. The simulated results also showed that not only night-time phenomena but also the development of the day-time lake-breeze circulation as well as the surface heat fluxes from various land-use types over land during daytime are the key for the better estimation of the nocturnal local precipitation in this region.
