| Research Abstract |
An attempt was made to clarify temporal and spatial variations in summer temperature anomalies and their causing factors in Tokyo metropolis using our original 200 high density meteorological observations and JMA-AMeDAS wind observations. The results show the effect of wind system, which is characterized by summer sea-breeze and strong southerly wind, on the high temperature area over the inland Kanto plain as a result of data analysis and numerical simulation. Also WRF simulation suggest a possibility of urban induced rainfall.
