| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project was conducted to clarify the characteristic features of localized intense rainfall (LIR) in urban area based on observation data of rain particles, high density rain-gauge networks and radar, and to examine the prediction method of LIR by using high density meteorological observations. In the beginning phase of LIR, ratio of large rain particles was high, and rainfall intensity increased rapidly. Spatially concentrated and small scale intense rainfall areas appeared frequently in the region from the northern part of Metropolitan Tokyo to the southern part of Saitama Prefecture. As for the diurnal variation in LIR frequencies, two major peaks were observed about 4 PM and 10 PM in the western part of Tokyo Wards area. From statistical analyses of many LIR cases, it was confirmed that the increase in convergence of surface winds from 40-50 minutes before the beginning of LIR is an effective signal for the prediction of LIR occurrence.
