The present study examined the detailed rainfall features around the Japan Islands brought by Ty0423 and the atmospheric processes based on the operational observation data by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), comparing with those in association with Ty0418 around 7 September 2004. During the stage when Ty0423 was approaching or landing on the western part of the Japan Islands, the areal mean precipitation from Kyushu to Kanto District attained much larger than that for Ty0418, with wider extension of the area with the large amount of precipitation. It is interesting that, although the intense rainfall was observed only at the upstream side of the mountain range from Kyushu to Honshu District for Ty0418 except for the area near its center, strong rainfall with 10~30 mm/h persisted in wider regions from the western to the eastern part of the Japan Islands, resulting in the considerably large total rainfall for Ty0423. As for the case for Ty0423, the surface front with stable frontal surface was located just to the east of the Ty0423 center just before its landing at the Japan Islands. Thus, the huge moisture inflow mainly in the eastern region from the typhoon center seems to be redistributed widely over the Japan Islands area associated with the large-scale convergence around the stable frontal surface. In late October, the colder air associated with the high pressure system in the eastern Siberia can cover the northern part of the Japan Sea area as the seasonal march. Such basic field might be favorable for sustaining the synoptic-scale front just around the southern coast of the Japan Islands, even when the strong southerly wind invades associated with the typhoon approach there. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=SatakeAi en-aut-sei=Satake en-aut-mei=Ai kn-aut-name=佐竹愛 kn-aut-sei=佐竹 kn-aut-mei=愛 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KatoKuranoshin en-aut-sei=Kato en-aut-mei=Kuranoshin kn-aut-name=加藤 内藏進 kn-aut-sei=加藤  kn-aut-mei=内藏進 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MoriYoshinori en-aut-sei=Mori en-aut-mei=Yoshinori kn-aut-name=盛宣誠 kn-aut-sei=盛 kn-aut-mei=宣誠 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=GodaYasuhiro en-aut-sei=Goda en-aut-mei=Yasuhiro kn-aut-name=合田泰弘 kn-aut-sei=合田 kn-aut-mei=泰弘 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=IkedaShoichiro en-aut-sei=Ikeda en-aut-mei=Shoichiro kn-aut-name=池田祥一郎 kn-aut-sei=池田 kn-aut-mei=祥一郎 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TsukamotoOsamu en-aut-sei=Tsukamoto en-aut-mei=Osamu kn-aut-name=塚本修 kn-aut-sei=塚本 kn-aut-mei=修 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院教育学研究科 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院自然科学研究科 affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院自然科学研究科 en-keyword=Ty0423 kn-keyword=Ty0423 en-keyword=Ty0418 kn-keyword=Ty0418 en-keyword=rainfall in Japan associated with a typhoon in mid-autumn kn-keyword=rainfall in Japan associated with a typhoon in mid-autumn en-keyword=effects of a typhoon on the synoptic climatology in Japan in October kn-keyword=effects of a typhoon on the synoptic climatology in Japan in October END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=19 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=39 end-page=50 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2012 dt-pub=20121226 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=A case study on persistent appearance of the ensemble of precipitation bands in the warm sector of the Baiu front in the western Japan around 19 June 2001 kn-title=地上梅雨前線の南方の九州における 線状降水帯の集団の維持について (2001年6月19日頃の事例解析) en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=A case study on persistent appearance of the ensemble of precipitation bands in the warm sector of the Baiu front in Kyushu District, the western part of Japan around 19 June 2001 was performed based on the operational observational data. Around 00UTC (09JST) 19 June when the Baiu front on the surface weather map was still located about a few 100kms to the north of Kyushu, the number and the total area of the meso-β or γ-scale line-shaped precipitation bands increased around Kyushu rapidly. These precipitation bands had been sustained there and gradually gathered each other to change into the Baiu frontal precipitation zone extending from the northern Kyushu to Seto-Naikai (Seto Inland Sea) around 09UTC (18JST) 19 June (the intense rainfall zone was still located in the warm sector of the Baiu front). Until ~09UTC (18JST) 19 June, the moist air flow with the latently unstable stratification had been sustained around Kyushu corresponding to the low-level southerly wind toward the surface Baiu front to the north of Kyushu. This large-scale situation would contribute greatly to the maintenance of the ensemble of the line-shaped precipitation bands in the warm sector of the Baiu front. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=GodaYasuhiro en-aut-sei=Goda en-aut-mei=Yasuhiro kn-aut-name=合田泰弘 kn-aut-sei=合田 kn-aut-mei=泰弘 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KatoKuranoshin en-aut-sei=Kato en-aut-mei=Kuranoshin kn-aut-name=加藤内藏進 kn-aut-sei=加藤 kn-aut-mei=内藏進 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TsukamotoOsamu en-aut-sei=Tsukamoto en-aut-mei=Osamu kn-aut-name=塚本修 kn-aut-sei=塚本 kn-aut-mei=修 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院教育学研究科 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院教育学研究科自然教育学系理科教育講座 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院自然科学研究科 en-keyword=ensemble of line-shaped precipitation bands kn-keyword=ensemble of line-shaped precipitation bands en-keyword=precipitation in the warm sector of the Baiu front kn-keyword=precipitation in the warm sector of the Baiu front en-keyword=Baiu fronal rainfall kn-keyword=Baiu fronal rainfall END
