| Research Abstract |
In order to analyze the phenomena in which strong winds at the surface are induced by the downward movement of the high-speed layer in the higher levels, observations have been made in the Ujigawa Open Laboratory, Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University. As a result, in the near-neutral conditions, sometimes large-scale turbulence structures predominantly occur and corresponding strong winds blow at the surface. Strong winds at the surface were also observed after the passage of the ascending large-scale structure in the unstable conditions of the daytime. These phenomena are due to the downward transport of momentum from the high-speed layer in the higher levels. It is likely that similar phenomena are possible in the severe weather.
