7. DATASET OVERVIEW

7.1 Abstract

(1) This is the dataset simulated by high resolution non-hydrostatic regional climate model of which horizontal grid spacing is 5km over Japan and surroundings. The dataset consists of the present climate (20 years) and the future climate over the end of the 21st century (20 years) under the RCP8.5 and RCP2.6 scenarios (4 members for each scenario).

(2) High resolution simulations enable to estimate the future change of extreme events, such as typhoons and localized torrential downpours, with high accuracy.

(3) This dataset provides the climate projections which adaptations against global warming are based on in various fields, for example, disaster prevention, urban planning, environmental protection, and so on. It would realize the global warming adaptations consistent not only among issues but also among regions.

10. DATA POLICY

10.1 Data Policy by the Data Provider

Data Release Policy of Climate Projection Data in Japan with 5km-mesh NHRCM by SOUSEI and TOUGOU Programs

This dataset was produced by the joint project of Meteorological Research Institute of Japan Meteorological Agency, University of Tsukuba, and Nagoya University, under the support of the Program for Risk Information on Climate Change (SOUSEI, FY2012-2016), Integrated Research Program for Advancing Climate Models (TOUGOU, FY2017-2021), and the Data Integration and Analysis System (DIAS), funded by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). The Earth Simulator was used for building up the dataset. Users can access the dataset via the data server maintained by DIAS.

Terms and Conditions:

1. Individual users must register their name, affiliation, email-address and purpose of use before access to the database will be permitted.

2. Individual users should not redistribute the data to any third party.

3. The source of the database should be duly acknowledged in scientific and technical papers, publications, press releases and other communications in case of using the data.

Example:

This study used data produced with the Earth Simulator by the Program for Risk Information on Climate Change (SOUSEI) and Integrated Research Program for Advancing Climate Models (TOUGOU) from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), Japan.

Disclaimer:

Meteorological Research Institute of Japan Meteorological Agency is not responsible for any damage that may result from the use of this dataset. The intellectual property rights of the dataset belong exclusively to Meteorological Research Institute of Japan Meteorological Agency.

10.2 Data Policy by the Project

10.2.1 Data Integration and Analysis System
