This model together with a pre-established wind-wave-currents coupled model was applied to a number of regional environmental issue and disaster events to reproduce the present status and past situations and to help our understanding of the physical processes of such problems in terms of atmosphere-ocean interactions including the sea surface waves in the interface between air and sea. The disaster events and environmental issue studied in this thesis are follows. 1) Storm surge induced by Hurricane Katrina in the Gulf coast of USA in 2005. 2) Extreme high waves at Hara coast, Suruga Bay in Japan caused by the super-Typhoon TIP in 1979. 3) Positive and negative feedbacks in typhoon-ocean interaction in case of Typhoon ETAU in 2003. 4) Thermal water circulation in a dam-made lake (Yachiyo Lake) in Hiroshima, Japan concerning on the hydrodynamics in the lake. 5) Reanalysis of the past 47 storms that caused disasters in West Kyushu, Japan. 6) Wave overtopping simulation over through the submerged offshore breakwater and enhance seawall. The Regional Environment and Disaster Prevention Simulator is proposed and constructed based on the regional atmosphere-ocean coupled model in this thesis of which the objective was improvement of the numerical assessment method to disaster events and environment problems by introducing the coupling effects between different systems. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all, I would like to express my deep gratitude to Prof. Yamashita in Hiroshima University for his guidance and help he has given me throughout the PhD course for 3 years and enthusiasm for research, works, and laboratory.

The supplementary vortex messages directly measured for tropical storms before making landfall show their winds profile and the data for Katrina recorded starting at 03:32Z on 29th August was chosen because it shows relatively well the wind profile of the storm in the simulation time scope 55 Fig. 3.2 Wind profiles of observed supplementary vortex data (red circle) at 03:32Z 29th and simulated wind profiles by Rankine vortex (black circle), modified Rankine vortex (black triangle) and SLOSH (black cross) wind model at 04:00Z 29th.
