工学部土木環境工学科の相馬一義准教授らのグループが河川整備基金助成事業優秀成果賞を受賞

　平成27年7月28日（火）、砂防会館シェーンバッハ?サボー（東京都千代田区）において、工学部土木環境工学科の相馬一義准教授を代表とし、野依亮介氏（平成26年度澳门皇冠体育_皇冠足球比分-【VIP专线直播】修士課程?国際流域環境科学特別教育プログラム修了）を研究協力者とするグループが、平成27年度河川整備基金助成事業優秀成果賞を受賞しました。

　受賞テーマは「京阪神における局地的大雨予測への詳細な都市環境情報導入とその影響評価」です。これは、統計データとGISデータを駆使して詳細かつ広域の都市環境情報を推定する手法を提案し、数値気象モデルへ導入しゲリラ豪雨の予測精度向上を目指したものです。

　相馬准教授は「本事業は野依さんの修士論文研究を通じて共同で遂行したもので、この度は大変名誉ある賞をいただき光栄に思います。国際流域環境研究センター水工グループ、先端領域若手研究リーダー育成拠点の皆様には多くのご協力?ご助言をいただきました。この場を借りて深く御礼申し上げます。」と述べています。

Dr. Kazuyoshi Souma and Mr. Ryosuke Noyori were awarded by the River Fund at the River Foundation.

The research group led by Dr. Kazuyoshi Souma (Associate Professor; Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering) and conducted with research collaborator Mr. Ryosuke Noyori (a graduate in 2014 of the Special Master Course Program at the Interdisciplinary Research Centre for River Basin Environment at the University of Yamanashi) was awarded the Superior Performance Prize for a project subsidized by the River Fund at the River Foundation in 2015.

The award-winning project was titled “Implementation of Detailed Urban Environmental Information for Localized Heavy Rainfall Predictions in the Keihan Region and Evaluation of Relevant Effects.” The project proposed a method for estimating urban environmental information in a detailed manner and with coverage of a broad area by utilizing statistical data and GIS data. The proposed method imports data to a numerical meteorological model with the goal of improving prediction accuracy for localized heavy rainfalls.
Dr. Souma delivered the following comments: “This project was implemented jointly with Mr. Noyori, who was performing research for his master’s thesis, and I feel very privileged to be granted such a honor. The members of the Hydro-Engineering group in the Interdisciplinary Research Centre for River Basin Environment as well as the Base for Fostering Young Research Leaders in Leading-Edge Areas provided us much cooperation and advice. I wish to take this opportunity to express our gratitude.”
