Jose Angelo HOKSON, a doctoral student of the laboratory recently presented his paper entitled “The Multi-scale Kain Fritsch Cumulus Scheme: Simulating typhoon-induced heavy precipitation over the Philippines” during the 30th Global Environment Symposium held on August 31 to September 2 at Hokkaido University, Japan.
The Symposium is an annual event held by Japan Society of Civil Engineers’ (JSCE) Global Environment Committee. Oral and poster presentations are conducted in the symposium for a wide range of research fields related to global environment issues.
Hokson’s paper is co-authored by Prof. Shinjiro KANAE and Asst. Prof. Rie SETO. The research is an extension of Hokson’s Master’s research. It checked the applicability and performance of the Multi-scale Kain Fritsch Cumulus scheme in simulating heavy rainfall from typhoons in the Philippines. The paper was recently accepted for publication as part of the Journal of Global Environmental Research (地球環境研究論文集). Link to paper: https://doi.org/10.2208/jscejer.78.5_I_163
