Abstract:Snowfall and wet snow accretion in the Kanto Plain, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, significantly impact the lives of people there. This study used a large ensemble simulation to predict future changes in the frequency of snowfall and wet snow accretion, and the accumulated snowfall and wet snow accretion during an event. We assessed wet snow accretion using a model that considers the effects of temperature, precipitation, wind speed, and humidity. The future snowfall event frequency and accumulated sno… Show more
