The top figure represents a CDP gather by conventional processing and the middle one is that after applying the Median filter. The bottom two figures show an AVO analysis. In the upper part, dots represent reflection amplitudes observed and the curve is a theoretical amplitude response calculated from the model shown in the lower diagram. 113
Japan Marine Science and Technology Center Research Activities Frontier Research System for Global Change Overall Event and Activities It has been six years since Frontier Research System for Global Change (FRSGC) started its research activities on elucidation and prediction of various global change mechanisms in October . There were two main important events in this fiscal year: ) Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) launched a new project, "Research Project for Sustainable Coexistence of Human, Nature, and the Earth". (Shortly called "MEXT's project" hereafter.) Three out of seven subjects are selected and decided to be carried out by FRSGC, and thus we have started our related project accordingly. ) The "Earth Simulator" fully started its operation and FRSGC researchers have started developing high resolution models in many subjects using the Earth Simulator. As usual, we have organized and participated in various international workshops and events. Followings are the summary of our activities for FY . 1. Research Project for Sustainable Coexistence of Human, Nature, and the Earth MEXT launched a new research initiative, Research Revolution (RR ) to promote research on five important areas designated at the Council for Science and Technology Policy of Cabinet Office. As the project in "Environment" area, "Project for Sustainable Coexistence of Human, Nature, and the Earth" was launched with the following missions. (a) "Japan Model" mission for global warming prediction in order to contribute to the IPCC Forth Assessment in . For this end, more reliable climate models shall be developed. (b) Water Cycle Prediction mission in order to establish the basis of season to year prediction of the state of water resources in the Asian monsoon region by enhancing our understanding of land hydrological processes and developing prediction models. In addition to the above two missions, the project requests construction of climate data base in order to meet the requirements from the two missions.
