Course Summary

There are many islands in Japan, and due to the fact that they are surrounded by the sea, they are known to have their own localized winds. In addition, the islands in the Sea of Japan, in particular, are closer to the continent than Honshu, etc., so it is known that material transport from the continent is remarkable. Among them, Okinoshima Island, which is located off the coast of Shimane Prefecture, is close to the continent and is in the downstream area of the westerly wind characterized by the jet stream, so pollutants etc. measuring data. Therefore, in this special project, various variables such as wind, air pollutants, and sea salt particles will be measured on Okinoshima Island, which is extremely important for observation, throughout the day. By comparing the data, we will clarify points such as what differences exist between the island and Honshu, how long it takes to transport materials, and how much diffusion they are transported. Specifically, the above questions will be clarified by analyzing the data obtained by observation and the measurement data of the Japan Meteorological Agency at the same time.
