Ongoing Climate-Related Projects in Japan • “Kakushin” program (climate science) • S-5 (model-output intercomparison and climate change risk assessment) • IR3S (sustainability science) • DIAS (data integration and analysis) Integrated Research System for Sustainability Science establishes a transdisciplinary academic structure that facilitates the fusion of the natural sciences with the humanities and social sciences. This project is related to “mitigation of climate change” (IPCC WG3).
The 2nd phase of Japanese global warming project on the Earth Simulator: Kakushin Program, 2007-2011 Funded by Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) • Team 1: Carbon cycle w/ ESM (FRCGC/NIES/CCSR) • Team 2: Near-term decadal prediction w/ hi-res AOGCM (CCSR/NIES/FRCGC) • Team 3: Time-slice exp w/ 20km AGCM (MRI/JMA) # Teams 1-3 all consist ofModelling / Uncertainty / Impact sub-teams # Model outputs exceeding 300TB are expected. • Others • CSRM, global as well as regional • Hi-res OGCM # ES will be upgraded in March 2009
Extension to the Stratosphere Team 1: Carbon cycle w/ ESM
Team 2: Japanese CLIMATE 2030 Project 110km mesh model • A near-term prediction up to 2030 with a high-resolution coupled AOGCM • 60km Atmos + 20x30km Ocean • w/ updated cloud PDF scheme, PBL, etc • advanced aerosol/chemistry • Estimate of uncertainty due to initial conditions • 10(?)-member ensemble • For impact applications • water risk assessment system • impacts on marine ecosystems • etc. • Test run w/ 20km AOGCM (in 2011) 60km mesh model 5-min topography Ensemble hindcast/forecast Assimilation/Initialization

CMIP5 IPCC WG1 IPCC WG3 IPCC WG2 Kakushin IR3S S-5 Synthesis Physical Science Basis of Climate Change Climate Change Impact, Adaptation and Vulnerability Mitigation of Climate Change • Better association among natural scientists, social scientists and possibly policy makers • Consistency with IPCC context -> contribution to international community

Concluding Messages • A CMIP5 distributed sever will be prepared by somebody somewhere in Japan someday within the next FY (2009-10), as the collective will of the Japanese science community and government agencies. • The data service will be realized by importing expert data management and web service systems discussed during this conference as well as the ones originally developed by several domestic projects in Japan.
